NTP PICS PROFORMA

For the Network Time Protocol Version 3

Status of this Memo

This memo provides information for the Internet community. This memo

does not specify an Internet standard of any kind. Distribution of

this memo is unlimited.

Abstract

This RFCdescribes a PICS Proforma translated into an Internet

acceptable form. The Original document was developed according to

ISO 9646 for conformance test purposes. This document is intended

for both developers and users of the NTP (Network Time Protocol).

This document contains specific information and performance

characteristics for the use of NTP within the context of Internet

usage. It is suggested, that users wishing to use the

synchronization capabilities of the Internet abide by the

characteristics set within this document.

For more information please contact Dr. David Mills at Mills@udel.edu

or review RFC1305 for more information.

1. INTRODUCTION

To evaluate conformance of a particular implementation, it is

necessary to have a statement of the capabilities and options that

have been implemented for a given protocol. Such a statement is

called a Protocol Implementation Conformance Statement (PICS).

2. SCOPE

This document provides the PICS proforma for the Network Time

Protocol (NTP) in compliance with the relevant requirements, and in

accordance with the relevant guidance, given in ISO/IEC 9646-2.

3. REFERENCE DOCUMENTS

ISO/IEC 9646-1 1990, Information technology - Open systems

interconnection - Conformance testing

methodology and framework - Part 1: General

concepts.

ISO/IEC 9646-2 1990, Information technology - Open systems

interconnection - Conformance testing

methodology and framework - Part 2: Abstract

test suite specification.

RFC1305 Network Time Protocol (Version 3) -

Specification, Implementation and Analysis -

David L. Mills, University of Delaware -

March 1992.

4. DEFINITIONS

This document uses the following terms defined in ISO/IEC 9646-1:

a) PICS proforma;

b) Protocol Implementation Conformance Statement (PICS);

c) Static conformance review.

4.1 SPECIAL SYMBOLS

The additional symbols have been identified for use in this document:

m Mandatory field/function

o.# Optional field/function

c# Conditional field/function

# Refers to a note # below the table

x Prohibited use

n/a Not applicable

Y[] Indicates the item is implemented

N[] Indicates the item is not implemented

5. INSTRUCTIONS FOR COMPLETION OF PICS

The supplier of a protocol implementation which is claimed to conform

to NTP version 3 is required to complete a copy of the PICS proforma

provided in this document and is required to provide the information

necessary to identify both the supplier and the implementation.

6. COPYRIGHT

Copyright release for PICS proforma. Users of this RFCmay freely

reproduce the PICS proforma in this document so that it can be used

for its intended purpose and may further publish the completed PICS.
