How does the client-server handshake work for PTP and NTP?

How does the client-server handshake work for PTP and NTP? 

  • PTP and NTP both support the User Datagram Protocol (UDP).

    • The typical UDP ports for PTP traffic are 319 (Event Message) and 320 (General Message).
    • The official UDP port for NTP (used by ntpd and ntpdate) is 123.
