Questions and Answers

What is the recommended time source for network services in order to minimize drifts?

  • Different time sources for remote clients and network servers
  • Internal time from the client PCs
  • Battery-powered real time clock (RTC) chip
  • GPS-synchronized time sources or a pool of Internet time sources (correct)

    • Why is relying solely on the internal time of client PCs not recommended for time synchronization?

  • It ensures close synchronization with the server time
  • It is a reliable authoritative time source
  • It is tolerant of 30 or 60 second discrepancies
  • It can lead to servers and clients drifting out of sync, especially for remote clients (correct)

    • What can happen if some clients are set to use different time sources than the network servers?

  • Faster backup processes
  • Enhanced security for authentication processes
  • Improved synchronization between servers and clients
  • Servers and clients can drift out of sync (correct)

    • What is the main reason why authentication systems are intolerant of time discrepancies?
