Accurate timing is also often required for telco gear.

Subject: Re: NTP question

So I gotta ask, just as a reality check:

- Why do folks want to have one or more NTP server masters that have at
least 1 refclock on them in a data center, instead of having their data
center NTP server masters that only get time over the internet?

- What % of data center operators provide time servers in their data
centers for their tenants (or for the general public)?
