Ntp uses a hierarchical semi layered system of time sources.
Ntp users are strongly urged to take immediate action to ensure that their ntp daemons are not susceptible to being used in distributed denial of service ddos attacks.

Each level of this hierarchy is termed a stratum and is assigned a number starting with zero for the reference clock at the top.
The nist servers listen for a ntp request on port 123 and respond by sending a udp ip data packet in the ntp format.
Also on older computers that run windows xp or earlier versions the net time querysntp command displays the name of a network time protocol ntp server with which a computer is configured to synchronize but that ntp server is used only when the computer s time client is configured as ntp or allsync.
Access to pool project servers is available over the internet to time clients free of charge.
The following servers support only authenticated ntp requests using the symmetric key encryption method that is defined in the ntp documentation.

Stratum 2 ntp servers get their time from stratum 1 ntp servers.
They do not respond to requests for time in the daytime or time formats and will not accept anonymous ftp connections.
The data packet includes a 64 bit timestamp containing the time in utc seconds since january 1 1900 with a resolution of 200 ps.
The domain names point to a random set of uk based time servers that change every hour.
The uk pool zone is referenced by the following domain names.
Stratum 1 ntp servers get their time from reference clocks via methods such as gps cdma or wwv.
The number represents the distance from the reference clock and is used to prevent cyclical dependencies in the hierarchy.
