This document describes an interleaved client/server mode, This document describes an interleaved client/server mode,
interleaved symmetric mode, and interleaved broadcast mode. In these interleaved symmetric mode, and interleaved broadcast mode. In these
modes, the server sends a packet that contains a transmit timestamp modes, the server sends a packet that contains a transmit timestamp
corresponding to the transmission of the previous packet that was corresponding to the transmission of the previous packet that was
sent to the client or peer. This transmit timestamp can be captured sent to the client or peer. This transmit timestamp can be captured
in any software or hardware component involved in the transmission of in any software or hardware component involved in the transmission of
the packet. Both servers and clients/peers are required to keep some the packet. Both servers and clients/peers are required to keep some
state specific to the interleaved mode. state specific to the interleaved mode.
An NTPv4 implementation that supports the client/server and An NTPv4 implementation that supports the interleaved client/server
interleaved broadcast modes interoperates with NTPv4 implementations and interleaved broadcast modes interoperates with NTPv4

The mode needs to be configured specifically for each symmetric that does not support it. The mode needs to be configured

The interleaved modes do not change the NTP packet header format and The interleaved modes do not change the NTP packet header format and
do not use new extension fields. The negotiation is implicit. The do not use new extension fields. The negotiation is implicit. The
protocol is extended with new values that can be assigned to the protocol is extended with new values that can be assigned to the

response can only be valid in one mode. If a client or peer that response can only be valid in one mode. If a client or peer that
does not support the interleaved mode received a response conforming does not support the interleaved mode received a response conforming
