2.1.1 [SNTP
CLIENT]
The [SNTP CLIENT] section of the configuration file is used to specify the
parameters for the Simple Network Time Protocol (SNTP) client provided with the
protocol driver. This client is required in order to keep the driver's internal clock set
correctly. This version of the driver supports SNTP Revision 3 and stratum between
1 and 14.
SNTP is used for time synchronization of produced and consumed commands.
When an exchange occurs the driver compares time stamps from the previous
exchange. When the new exchange time is less than the previous exchange, the
exchange is ignored. This can occur when the Ethernet packets are routed and
delayed. Time synchronization provides for data integrity.
