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.
