If the user knows that round trip delays above a certain level should cause the
measurement to be ignored, this level can be defined with the *maxdelay*
option. For example, *maxdelay 0.3* would indicate that measurements with a
round-trip delay of 0.3 seconds or more should be ignored. The default value is
3 seconds and the maximum value is 1000 seconds.
round-trip delay greater than 0.3 seconds should be ignored. The default value
is 3 seconds and the maximum value is 1000 seconds.
*maxdelayratio* _ratio_:::
This option is similar to the *maxdelay* option above. *chronyd* keeps a record
of the minimum round-trip delay amongst the previous measurements that it has
buffered. If a measurement has a round trip delay that is greater than the
specified ratio times the minimum delay, it will be rejected.
buffered. If a measurement has a round-trip delay that is greater than the
specified ratio times the minimum delay, it will be rejected. By default, this
test is disabled.
*maxdelaydevratio* _ratio_:::
If a measurement has a ratio of the increase in the round-trip delay from the
minimum delay amongst the previous measurements to the standard deviation of
