2.15.13 NTP Orphan Mode
The NTP Orphan Mode allows SecureSync to remain a valid time server to its NTP clients
even if all its input references have become invalid and the Holdover period has expired.
Per default, SecureSync will automatically downgrade itself to NTP Stratum15, should its
input references become invalid and after expiration of the Holdover period. By setting the
NTP Orphan Mode to an NTP Stratum level other than 15, SecureSync will continue to be
considered a valid time server by its NTP clients.
Note, however, that the time served by SecureSync after expiration of the Holdover
period can be of a low quality and therefore normally ought to be considered invalid. NTP
Orphan Mode exists as an option for timing networks that must stay intact even if the time
distributed is invalid. The other use case for Orphan Mode is to allow for NTP to be utilized
in an isolated timing network that is designed to normally operate without any external ref-
erences.
