<listitem><para>Takes a boolean argument. Controls whether
network time synchronization is active and enabled (if
available). This enables and starts, or disables and stops the
<filename>systemd-timesyncd.service</filename> unit. It does
not affect the state of any other, unrelated network time
synchronization services that might be installed on the
system. This command is hence mostly equivalent to:
<command>systemctl enable --now
systemd-timesyncd.service</command> and <command>systemctl
disable --now systemd-timesyncd.service</command>, but is
protected by a different access policy.</para>
<para>Note that even if time synchronization is turned off
with this command, another unrelated system service might
still synchronize the clock with the network. Also note that,
strictly speaking,
<filename>systemd-timesyncd.service</filename> does more than
just network time synchronization, as it ensures a monotonic
clock on systems without RTC even if no network is
available. See
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd-timesyncd.service</refentrytitle><manvolnum>8</manvolnum></citerefentry>
for details about this.</para></listitem>
<listitem><para>Takes a boolean argument. Controls whether network time synchronization is active

stops the all services listed in <varname>$SYSTEMD_TIMEDATED_NTP_SERVICES</varname>.</para></listitem>
