Hi, I am looking to implement an NTP network and I was reading http://support.ntp.org/bin/view/Support/DesigningYourNTPNetwork. It suggests 4 stratum 1 peers and 4 stratum 2 peers well. I understand, that the document recommends this so that if one of the servers in a stratum dies, there will still be 3 servers from which a majority clique should be found. The problem is that we will be starting out with simply 100 nodes at most. At the same time, we want drift less than 1 second. However, over the next 7 years or so, we should hit ~ 1000 NTP clients. Is the document's recommendation overkill for my situation?
Thanks, Ed Stuart _______________________________________________ questions mailing list [email protected] http://lists.ntp.org/listinfo/questions
