2. Time server - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time_server

   A time server is a server computer that reads the actual time from a reference clock and distributes this information to its clients using a computer network. The time server may be a local network time server or an internet time server. The most important and widely used protocol for distributing and synchronising time over the Internet is the ...

3. Network Time Protocol - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Network_Time_Protocol

   v. t. e. The Network Time Protocol (NTP) is a networking protocol for clock synchronization between computer systems over packet-switched, variable- latency data networks. In operation since before 1985, NTP is one of the oldest Internet protocols in current use. NTP was designed by David L. Mills of the University of Delaware.

4. chrony - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chrony

   chrony is an implementation of the Network Time Protocol (NTP). It is an alternative to ntpd, a reference implementation of NTP. It runs on Unix-like operating systems (including Linux and macOS) and is released under the GNU GPL v2. [4] It is the default NTP client and server in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8 and SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 15 ...

5. List of PTP implementations - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_PTP_implementations

   Precision Time Protocol (PTP) is a widely adopted protocol for delivery of precise time over a computer network. A complete PTP system includes PTP functionality in network equipment and hosts. PTP may be implemented in hardware, software or a combination of both. PTP is implemented in end systems and in PTP-aware networking hardware.

6. Precision Time Protocol - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Precision_Time_Protocol

   The Precision Time Protocol (PTP) is a protocol for clock synchronization throughout a computer network with relatively high precision and therefore potentially high accuracy. In a local area network (LAN), accuracy can be sub-microsecond – making it suitable for measurement and control systems. [1] PTP is used to synchronize financial ...

7. ntpd - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ntpd

   The ntpd program is an operating-system daemon that sets and maintains a computer system's system time in synchronization with Internet-standard time servers.It is a complete implementation of the Network Time Protocol (NTP) version 4, but retains compatibility with versions 1, 2, and 3 as defined by RFC 1059, RFC 1119, and RFC 1305, respectively. ntpd performs most computations in 64-bit ...
