Danny,
KoD packets have the leap bits set to 3 (unsynchronized); the stratum is
not signficant. The reference implementation sets the stratum to 16 for
the RATE kiss code. However, packet stratum 16 is mapped to stratum 0 as
visible to the monitoring function. Codes like INIT and STEP are

That was the point I was trying to make. I wasn't making any statements
about the reference implementation though since he didn't he didn't tell
us what the server was running and he was asking a general question.

Danny,
KoD packets
Hi,
Is an NTP packet with stratum set to 1 ever allowed to contain a kiss of
death code? I got a server (NTPv4) that sends NTP packets with stratum 1 and
KoD codes like INIT or STEP and I fail to find a confirmation in any RFC
relating to version 4 of NTP whether this is allowed or not.
Thanks
