If you change any of the network connection parameters, click Apply to apply the changes to the system. Time GS716T/GS724T software supports the Simple Network Time Protocol (SNTP). SNTP assures accurate network device clock time synchronization up to the millisecond. Time synchronization is performed by a network SNTP server. GS716T/GS724T software operates only as an SNTP client and cannot provide time services to other systems. Time sources are established by Stratums. Stratums define the accuracy of the reference clock. The higher the stratum (where zero is the highest), the more accurate the clock. The device receives time from stratum 1 and above since it is itself a stratum 2 device. The following is an example of stratums: • Stratum 0: A real-time clock is used as the time source, for example, a GPS system. • Stratum 1: A server that is directly linked to a Stratum 0 time source is used. Stratum 1 time servers provide primary network time standards. • Stratum 2: The time source is distanced from the Stratum 1 server over a network path. For example, a Stratum 2 server receives the time over a network link, via NTP, from a Stratum 1 server. Information received from SNTP servers is evaluated based on the time level and server type. SNTP time definitions are assessed and determined by the following time levels: • T1: Time at which the original request was sent by the client. • T2: Time at which the original request was received by the server. • T3: Time at which the server sent a reply. • T4: Time at which the client received the server's reply. The device can poll Unicast server types for the server time. Polling for Unicast information is used for polling a server for which the IP address is known. SNTP servers that have been configured on the device are the only ones that are polled for synchronization information. T1 through T4 are used to determine server time. This is the preferred method for synchronizing device time because it is the most secure method. If this Configuring System Information 2-5 v1.0, July 2009

Time

GS716T/GS724T software supports the Simple Network Time Protocol (SNTP).

SNTP assures accurate network device clock time synchronization up to the millisecond. Time

synchronization is performed by a network SNTP server. GS716T/GS724T software operates only

as an SNTP client and cannot provide time services to other systems.

Time sources are established by Stratums. Stratums define the accuracy of the reference clock. The

higher the stratum (where zero is the highest), the more accurate the clock. The device receives

time from stratum 1 and above since it is itself a stratum 2 device.

The following is an example of stratums:

•

Stratum 0:

A real-time clock is used as the time source, for example, a GPS system.

•

Stratum 1:

A server that is directly linked to a Stratum 0 time source is used. Stratum 1 time

servers provide primary network time standards.

•

Stratum 2

: The time source is distanced from the Stratum 1 server over a network path. For

example, a Stratum 2 server receives the time over a network link, via NTP, from a Stratum 1

server.

Information received from SNTP servers is evaluated based on the time level and server type.

SNTP time definitions are assessed and determined by the following time levels:

•

: Time at which the original request was sent by the client.

•

: Time at which the original request was received by the server.

•

: Time at which the server sent a reply.

•

: Time at which the client received the server's reply.

The device can poll Unicast server types for the server time.

Polling for Unicast information is used for polling a server for which the IP address is known.

SNTP servers that have been configured on the device are the only ones that are polled for

synchronization information. T1 through T4 are used to determine server time. This is the

preferred method for synchronizing device time because it is the most secure method. If this
