ABSTRACT
The Fixed Installation Case Study presents an approach for deploying
time synchronization services to Air Force installations in accordance
with the Air Force Network Time Service Profile. The study proposes
a method for implementing time services utilizing existing commercial
products and is intended to provide guidance in developing an implementation
plan. Time services are obtained from UTC (USNO) via the Global Positioning
System (GPS) and distributed over the Local/Metropolitan Area Network
using the Network Time Protocol (NTP). Furthermore, high precision clocks
are utilized to provide stability and availability.
The case study is intended as guidance for developing a detailed implementation
plan. This document should not be construed as the only, or even the
best, solution for the dissemination of enterprise time services.
