4.2.12 SNTP

4.2.12.1 Global Configuration
Configurable Data
Client Mode - Specifies the mode of operation of SNTP Client. An SNTP client may operate in one of the following
modes.
Disable- SNTP is not operational. No SNTP requests are sent from the client nor are any received SNTP
messages processed.
Unicast- SNTP operates in a point to point fashion. A unicast client sends a request to a designated server at its
unicast address and expects a reply from which it can determine the time and, optionally the round-trip delay and
local clock offset relative to the server.
Broadcast - SNTP operates in the same manner as multicast mode but uses a local broadcast address instead of
a multicast address. The broadcast address has a single subnet scope while a multicast address has Internet
wide scope.
Default value is Disable.
Port - Specifies the local UDP port to listen for responses/broadcasts. Allowed range is (1 to 65535). Default value is
123.
Unicast Poll Interval - Specifies the number of seconds between unicast poll requests expressed as a power of two
when configured in unicast mode. Allowed range is (6 to 10). Default value is 6.
Broadcast Poll Interval - Specifies the number of seconds between broadcast poll requests expressed as a power
of two when configured in broadcast mode. Broadcasts received prior to the expiry of this interval are discarded.
Allowed range is (6 to 10). Default value is 6.
Unicast Poll Timeout - Specifies the number of seconds to wait for an SNTP response when configured in unicast
mode. Allowed range is (1 to 30). Default value is 5.
