1.1.3 NTP Implementation Mode
To accommodate networks of different structures and switches in different network
positions, NTP can operate in multiple modes, as described in the following.

In peer mode, both

smaller stratum
Figure 1-3 NTP implementation mode: peer mode
In peer mode, the active peer sends clock synchronization packets first, and its peer
works as a passive peer automatically.
If both of the peers have reference clocks, the one with smaller stratum is adopted.
