\chapter[NTP]{Network Time Protocol}
\gls{ntp} is the source of all evil and \gls{sla}. A network wide source of time configuration for all network nodes, servers, clients etc. is necessary.
@ -65,35 +65,37 @@ A select number of Cisco switches support synchronization with the hardware cloc
\textbf{Beware} when running a cisco node as \gls{ntp} master and are using access-list to restrict possible clients/peers. You need to allow 127.127.[0-255].1 in the access-list\footnote{The 3rd octet will vary depending on the node.}. This because the master NTP node in the network uses this \gls{ipv4} address as internal master.
\section{Secure NTP}
\section[SNTP]{Simple Network Time Protocol}
\subsection{Characteristics}
\begin{itemize}
\item \gls{ntp} is insecure be default, whích prompted for \gls{sntp} to come along,
\item Cisco \gls{ios} devices typically only support MD5 encryption\footnote{\url{https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MD5}}
\end{itemize}
\subsubsection{Configure SNTP}
\textbf{Team Cymru} has a nice template for how to enable \gls{sntp} on \gls{ios} and \gls{junos}\footnote{\url{https://www.team-cymru.org/secure-ntp-template.html}}. Shown below is a copy of the \gls{ios} example from Cymrus website.
\begin{cisco}
ntp authenticate ! enable NTP authentication
ntp authentication-key [key-id] md5 [hash] ! define a NTP authentication key
ntp trusted-key [key-id] ! mark a NTP authentication key as trusted
ntp peer [peer_address] key [key-id] ! form a authenticated session with a peer
ntp server [server_address] key [key-id] ! form a authenticated session with a server
\end{cisco}
\subsection{Versions}
Generally today \gls{ntp}v3 or v4 is found. The difference to v4 \textit{(amongst other)} is
\begin{itemize}
\item support for \gls{ipv6}.
\item The security in the protocol is upped to with support for X509 certs.
\item Automatic calculation of time-distribution\footnote{to archive high time accuracy against lowest bandwidth cost} in a network based upon specific multicast groups leveraging v6 site-local multicast addresses.
\item \cliline{ntp-server ipv6-addr version 4}
\end{itemize}
\textbf{Beware} when using \gls{sntp} that \gls{ntp} cannot be used. The same \gls{udp} port is used.
