Hi, We are planing to deploy Network Time Server in our Organization. According to the architecture , Stratum 2 server will be responsible to provide correct time to Stratum 3 server and client ( Other servers) will synchronize with Stratum 3 server for obtaining correct time. Stratum 2 server will synchronize with Stratum 1 server. We will use NTP 4.2.6p3 Is it mandatory to open UDP port 123 between Stratum 2 and Stratum 3 server also between Stratum 3 and Client Machine for time synchronization? Can we use any customized port instead of UDP 123 for time synchronization?
You _can_ change the port number, but only by patching and costum compiling your own version of the NTP source code.
I.e. the answer is effectly: "No, you cannot change: Port 123 is the time sync port!"
