with an Internet time server?

- Report
Answer : [B]
Explanation :
Explanation :
A server that has established successful synchronization with an Internet time server typically would show a low stratum, somewhere between 2 and 5. Not 1, because that is for servers that are directly connected to a very reliable clock. Not 7, because that means there are many other servers between this server and the time source. Not 10, because that is the default stratum for a server that uses its local clock for synchronization. |
