This type of association is ordinarily created upon arrival of a 
client request message and exists only in order to reply to that 
request, after which the association is dissolved. By operating

willingness to synchronize, but not be synchronized by the 
peer.

 

A host operating in this mode sends periodic messages regard-
less of the reachability state or stratum of the peers. By operat-
ing in this mode, the host, usually a LAN time server operating 
on a a high-speed broadcast medium, announces its willing-
ness to synchronize all peers, but not be synchronized by any 
of them.
