Hey all,
Ran across this by accident on a 871 running 12.4(24)T2:
DE-Atlanta(config)#ntp server ?
A.B.C.D IP address of peer
WORD Hostname of peer
X:X:X:X::X IPv6 address of peer
ip Use IP for DNS resolution
ipv6 Use IPv6 for DNS resolution
vrf VPN Routing/Forwarding Information
DE-Atlanta(config)#ntp server ip ?
WORD Hostname of peer
DE-Atlanta(config)#ntp server ip pool.ntp.org ?
burst Send a burst when peer is reachable
iburst Send a burst when peer is unreachable
key Configure peer authentication key
maxpoll Maximum poll interval
minpoll Minimum poll interval
prefer Prefer this peer when possible
source Interface for source address
version Configure NTP version
<cr>
DE-Atlanta(config)#ntp server ip pool.ntp.org
Translating "pool.ntp.org"...domain server (12.127.16.67) [OK]

Been wanting this for years. Any idea what this feature is called? Didn't see anything in the release notes or feature navigator about it. Curious if it honors DNS TTLs, etc. I do see that it's negotiated V4 on these peers, but I don't think it's a function of NTP V4.
Thanks,
Chuck
