FIELD

DESCRIPTION

 

 

Time Protocol

Enter the time service protocol that your timeserver sends when you turn on the

 

Prestige. Not all timeservers support all protocols, so you may have to check with your

 

ISP/network administrator or use trial and error to find a protocol that works. The main

 

differences between them are the format.

 

Daytime (RFC 867) format is day/month/year/time zone of the server.

 

Time (RFC-868)format displays a 4-byte integer giving the total number of seconds

 

since 1970/1/1 at 0:0:0.

 

NTP (RFC-1305) the default, is similar to Time (RFC-868).

 

None enter the time manually.

 

 

Time Server

Enter the IP address or domain name of your timeserver. Check with your

Address

ISP/network administrator if you are unsure of this information. The default is

 

tick.stdtime.gov.tw
