A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories. Title : The Network Time Protocol Version 4 Extension Format Author : Vikram Choudhary Filename : draft-choudharykumar-ntp-ntpv4-extended-extensions-00.txt Pages : 7 Date : 2015-06-03 Abstract: The Network Time Protocol Version 4 (NTPv4) defines the optional usage of extension fields. An extension field as defined in RFC5905, is an optional field that resides at the end of the NTP header and can be used to add optional capabilities or additional information that is not conveyed in the standard NTP header. This document redefines NTP extension header proposed in RFC5905 by removing the size restriction imposed on extension fields due to MAC and also addresses backward compatibility issues which will arise on changing the legacy NTP extension header.
