Sntp Configuration - Hirschmann RS20 Reference Manual

Time

3.2 SNTP configuration

The Simple Network Time Protocol (SNTP) enables you to synchronize the
system time in your network.
The device supports the SNTP client and the SNTP server function.
The SNTP server makes the UTC (Universal Time Coordinated) available.
UTC is the time relating to the coordinated world time measurement. The
time displayed is the same worldwide. Local time differences are not taken
into account.
SNTP uses the same packet format as NTP. In this way, an SNTP client can
receive the time from an SNTP server as well as from an NTP server.
Note: For accurate system time distribution with cascaded SNTP servers
and clients, use only network components (routers, switches, hubs) in the
signal path between the SNTP server and the SNTP client which forward
SNTP packets with a minimized delay.
