6.5.3 Network Server Selection
To complete the configuration file, you need to define additional
sources of time for the server. Each time server on the network should
have at least three independent clock references to function optimally.
In large organizations there may already be network time servers in
operation. Consult your system administrators for their names or IP
numbers. If you have Internet Access, look at the list of public time
servers and choose geographically close sites for your sources.
You should choose a minimum of one time server, and it is a good
idea to choose three or more for redundancy. An example of a time
server entry is provided in the sample configuration file. Create one
server line item with the name or IP number for each available time
server.
