Abstract:
   Network Time Protocol version 4 (NTPv4) defines the optional usage of
   extension fields.  An extension field, as defined in RFC 5905
   [RFC5905] and RFC 5906 [RFC5906], resides after the end of the NTP
   header and supplies optional capabilities or information that cannot
   be conveyed in the basic NTP packet.  This document updates RFC 5905
   [RFC5905] by clarifying some points regarding NTP extension fields
   and their usage with legacy Message Authentication Codes (MACs), and
   removes wasteful requirements added by RCF 7822 [RFC7822].

   This proposal deprecates RFC 7822 [RFC7822].
