• The NTP master will claim to be synchronized at the configured stratum number.
• An NTP server with a higher stratum number will become the master.
• Other systems will be willing to synchronize to that master using NTP.
• The NTP master will be the clock with 1 as its stratum number.
• The NTP master will lower its stratum number.
