SWEDISH DISTRIBUTED TIME SERVICE


Welcome to the Swedish Distributed Time Service. This service delivers time over
the Internet using NTP, and several other protocols upon request.

The service is operated by Netnod, monitored by RISE Research Institutes of
Sweden and financed by The Swedish Post and Telecom Authority (PTS).

There are six time nodes in different locations in Sweden. The time nodes are
continuously monitored and steered to follow UTC(SP). Each time node has two
atomic clocks generating separate time scales for high availability. Even if a
time node would lose all contact with all its sources for timekeeping, it is
expected to be able to keep its time within narrow limits for months.

The NTP service is free to use. It also supports the latest Network Time
Security (NTS) standard. If you want to configure your client to use NTS and to
connect to the NTS service, please see the detailed NTS How To.

For guidelines on how to connect to NTP, you can also refer to Netnod’s best
practices for connecting to NTP servers. 

 


NTP SERVICE

For redundancy, the NTP service has two independent NTP servers in each time
node.

The NTP service is free to use for anyone anywhere. To use the NTP service, you
can use the anycast address which will direct the client to the closest
available server:

ntp.se


If you want to get time from more than one server, you can use some or all of
the unicast addresses below:

Göteborg:

gbg1.ntp.se
gbg2.ntp.se

Malmö:

mmo1.ntp.se
mmo2.ntp.se

Stockholm:

sth1.ntp.se
sth2.ntp.se
sth3.ntp.se
sth4.ntp.se


Sundsvall:

svl1.ntp.se
svl2.ntp.se

Luleå:

lul1.ntp.se
lul2.ntp.se

The NTP servers use a custom-build FPGA-based hardware implementation for
responding to the NTP requests, using IPv4 or IPv6, unsigned or signed, at a
full line-rate speed of 10Gb/s per interface. They use 1PPS and 10MHz signals
from the local time scales to achieve high accuracy and precision of the NTP
timestamps


NETWORK INFORMATION

The NTP service uses the following IP networks and AS number:

IPv4 - 8 subnets: 

194.58.200.0/24 ... 194.58.207.0/24 ​​


IPv6 - 8 subnets:

2a01:3f7:0::/48 ... 2a01:3f7:7::/48

AS:

57021

PTP

If you have mission-critical systems that need a level of accuracy beyond the
capability of software NTP implementations, you can also consider using PTP.

For more information about the service, please contact us here or The Swedish
Post and Telecom Authority (PTS).

What is PTP and why should you use it
Patrik "paf" Fältström, 2019.05.21
Providing traceable time to the highest levels of accuracy is essential for
industries ranging from telecommunications and the energy sector to financial
and trading services. Precision Time Protocol (PTP) services provide traceable
time over a dedicated fibre which enables organisations to time stamp to the
highest degree of accuracy.

Best practices for connecting to NTP servers
Christer Weinigel, 2021.09.09
Using the Network Time Protocol (NTP) is a simple and effective way to set your
local time. But how can you ensure that the time you are getting is correct,
what can you do to improve time accuracy, and how do you decide which NTP
servers are best for you? In this blogpost, we will take you through everything
you need to know about getting the most accurate time over NTP.
Blog

What is Network Time Security and why is it important?
Michael Cardell Widerkrantz, MC, 2019.09.30
A lot of the Internet’s most important security tools are dependent on accurate
time. In this blogpost, MC Widerkrantz explains why the time you are getting
might not be as secure as you think and how recent developments in Network Time
Security can help.
