Reject The peer is rejected and will not be used for synchronization. 
Rejection reasons could be the peer is unreachable, the peer is 
synchronized to this local server so synchronizing with it would 
create a sync loop, or the synchronization distance is too large. 
This is the normal startup state.
Invalid The peer is not maintaining an accurate clock. This peer will not 
be used for synchronization.
Excess The peer's synchronization distance is greater than ten other 
peers. This peer will not be used for synchronization.
Outlyer The peer is discarded as an outlier. This peer will not be used for 
synchronization.
Candidate The peer is accepted as a possible source of synchronization
Selected The peer is an acceptable source of synchronization, but its 
synchronization distance is greater than six other peers
Chosen The peer is chosen as the source of synchronization
ChosenPPS The peer is chosen as the source of synchronization, but the 
actual synchronization is occurring from a pulse-per-second 
(PPS) signal
Remote The ip address of the remote NTP server or peer with which this 
local host is exchanging NTP packets
