show ntp status

System status word, a code representing the status items listed.

Indicates a normal synchronized state with no leap seconds imminent. Other options could be leap_add_sec, leap_del_sec, or leap_alarm, indicating a leap second will be added, deleted, or a leap second requirement is upcoming.

Indicates the current synchronization source, in this case, an NTP server. Other options include sync_alarm and sync_unspec, both indicating that the router has not been synched.

Indicates the number of events that have occurred since that last code change. An event is often the receipt of an NTP polling message.

Describes the most recent event, in this case, the stratum of the peer server changed.

A detailed description of the version of NTP being used.

Indicates the current hardware platform and version of the processor.

Detailed description of the name and version of the operating system in use.

The number of leap seconds in use.

The stratum of the peer server. Anything greater than 1 is a secondary reference source, and the number roughly represents the number of hops away from the stratum 1 server.. Stratum 1 is a primary reference, such as an atomic clock.

The precision of the peer clock, how precisely the frequency and time can be maintained with this particular timekeeping system.

The total roundtrip delay to the primary reference source, in seconds.

The maximum error relative to the primary reference source, in seconds.

An identification number of the peer in use.

Reference identifier of the remote peer. If the reference identifier is not known, this field shows a value of 0.0.0.0.

The local time, in timestamp format, when the local clock was last updated. If the local clock has never been synchronized, the value is zero.

The NTP broadcast message polling interval, in seconds.

The current time on the local router clock.

The current mode of NTP operation, where 1 is symmetric active, 2 is symmetric passive, 3 is client, 4 is server, and 5 is broadcast.

Current estimated offset of the peer, in milliseconds. Indicates the time difference between the reference clock and the local clock.

The frequency of the clock.

Indicates the magnitude of jitter, in milliseconds, between several time queries.

A measure of how well this clock can maintain a constant frequency.
