NTP continues to run regardless of whether or not the network is up, and regardless of whether there is a local clock configured. Local clocks should never be used on leaf nodes. Also, it is conventional to use a stratum more like 10, to minimise the damage if anything does try and synch to a machine using a free running local clock. When used as a fallback on servers, local clocks compromise the ability to estimate the uncertainty in the time, because root dispersion and delay are reset when the local clock is selected. _______________________________________________ questions mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ntp.isc.org/mailman/listinfo/questions
