Field Descriptions

The following sections describe the fields displayed using the

ntppeers

command

Remote

. The

IP

address of the remote association.

Local

. The local interface address assigned by

NTP

to the remote association. If this address is

0.0.0.0

, then the local address has yet to be determined.

St

. The stratum level of the remote peer. If this number is

16

, the remote peer has not been

synchronized.

Poll.

The polling interval, in seconds.

Reach

. The reachability register of the remote association, in octal format. This number is

determined by the

NTP

algorithm.

Delay

. The currently estimated delay of this remote association, in seconds. This time is deter-

mined by the

NTP

algorithm.

Offset

. The currently estimated offset of this remote association, in seconds. This time is deter-

mined by the

NTP

algorithm.

Disp

. The currently estimated dispersion of this remote association, in seconds. This time is

determined by the

NTP

algorithm.
