It will remain in Holdover mode until any enabled and valid input reference becomes avail-
able again, or until the Holdover period expires, whichever occurs first.
During Holdover mode, NTP will remain at the same Stratum level it was before enter-
ing the Holdover mode and can continue to be the reference to the network. However,
if no input reference becomes available before the Holdover period expires, Time Sync
will be lost and shortly thereafter, NTP will report to the network that it is now at
Stratum 15. A status of Stratum 15 will cause the network to ignore VelaSync as an NTP
time reference.
