...ge number of different networks the manifest would grow with something that seems unnecessary. Finally, solution 2 seems to provide decent scalability, as adding a new network would mean adding a new line to the variable definition, and it fits with the idea that, after all, all those machines are ntp_clients, although they are using different ntp servers.

This primarily consists of two configs: a) NTP clients - this is quite easy, it''s a templated file requiring the names of the NTP
