NTS is structured as a suite of two loosely coupled sub-protocols. The first (NTS Key Establishment (NTS-KE)) handles initial authentication and key establishment over TLS. The second (NTS Extension Fields for NTPv4) handles encryption and authentication during NTP time synchronization via extension fields in the NTP packets, and holds all required state only on the client via opaque cookies.', changed pages to 33, changed standardization level to Proposed Standard, changed state to RFC, added RFC published event at 2020-09-30, changed IESG state to RFC Published)
