- "local" clock parameters :
- time offset

- parameters for each NTP server used to sync time
- offset
- dispersion
- delay

Synopsis
<Plugin "ntpd"> Host "localhost" Port "123" ReverseLookups false </Plugin>
Parameters
| Name | Default | Multivalue | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Host | localhost | No | No | Hostname or IP to collect NTP data from |
| Port | 123 | No | No | UDP port to collect NTP data from |
| ReverseLookups | True | No | No | If True report the peers with hostnames instead of IP addresses |
| IncludeUnitID | False | No | No | This option only exists for backward compatibility. If it is False and two ntpd peers use the same refclock driver, the plugin will try to write simultaneous measurements from both to the same type instance |
