Routers as ntp servers. Yuck! Routers route well, but they treat time as
a low priority job and jitter on Cisco routers is simply terrible.
Junipers do better, but are still a poor time server.

They may suck for being a Stratum-1/2 server, but even the most jittery
Cisco is still far and away good enough to serve up a ntpdate so that an
end-user PC-class machine is in the right minute.
