Thanks James,

I think that this is pretty close to what is needed for ntpv5.  I like the separation of protocol and algorithms, and the use of monotonic timescale for timestamp fields (at least by default), and the insistence on security.

I have two comments:
1. Why do you think that encryption should be the default mode? People often consider timing information to be critical but not secret.  Also it is likely to affect accuracy in implementations by adding a variable delay to encrypt.

2. I think that it is better to allow leap smearing and make it a visible part of the protocol than to pretend it is not going to happen.  On this topic I think that Miroslav’s proposal was more realistic.  Data center network architects tell me they definitely plan to continue to do leap smearing.

Doug

Despite saying I was going to hold off making a new version, I've made
some changes to prevent expiration ahead of IETF 112, including an
initial threat model and other minor changes.
The working group's feedback as always would be appreciated.

A new version of I-D, draft-gruessing-ntp-ntpv5-requirements-03.txt
has been successfully submitted by James Gruessing and posted to the
IETF repository.

Name:           draft-gruessing-ntp-ntpv5-requirements
Revision:       03
Title:          NTPv5 use cases and requirements
Document date:  2021-10-10
Group:          Individual Submission
Pages:          8
URL:

Diff:
https://www.ietf.org/rfcdiff?url2=draft-gruessing-ntp-ntpv5-requirements-03

Abstract:
   This document describes the use cases, requirements, and
   considerations that should be factored in the design of a successor
   protocol to supersede version 4 of the NTP protocol [RFC5905]
   presently referred to as NTP version 5 ("NTPv5").  This document is
   non-exhaustive and does not in its current version represent working
   group consensus.
