<div>
Don't know what you configured on your Cisco stuff, but you need<br />
ntp server xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx<br />
<br />
clock timezone PST -8<br />
clock summer-time PDT recurring<br />
<br />
Substitute you own timezone as needed, and you don't need the 3rd line if you're in a state or country that doesn't do Daylight savings.<br />
<br />
By default the routers will use UTC time which is the same as GMT.

Time Synchronization

A router is a networking device that forwards data packets between computer networks. Routers perform the "traffic directing" functions on the Internet. The most familiar type of routers are home and small office cable or DSL routers that simply pass data, such as web pages, email, IM, and videos between computers and the Internet. More sophisticated routers, such as enterprise routers, connect large business or ISP networks up to the powerful core routers that forward data at high speed along the optical fiber lines of the Internet backbone. Though routers are typically dedicated hardware devices, use of software-based routers has grown increasingly common.
