What is an Internet Time Server?

Internet Time ServerThe NIST Internet Time Service (ITS) allows users to synchronize computer clocks via the Internet. The time information provided by the service is directly traceable to UTC(NIST). The service responds to time requests from any Internet client in several formats including the DAYTIME, TIME, and NTP protocols.

Generally what is meant by an Internet Time Server is a Time Server connected to the Internet that is available for public use. It responds to time queries from computers all over the world. By installing the NTP client software on each of your workstations, and then directing each of them to get their time from the Internet Time Server, you can keep your network synchronized.

The time synchronization application allows you to synchronize your PC's system clock or all PC's system clock in your LAN using various time server types commonly available on TCP/IP networks, such as the Internet or LAN, And multiple time protocols are supported. As client, the protocol currently supported are Time protocols (RFC-868), and Simple Network Time protocols (SNTP - RFC-2030). It can be configured to full Time protocols (RFC-868) or SNTP protocols (RFC-2030) compliance .

As time server, Internet Time Server will itself provide time services to other computers using Simple Network Time protocols (SNTP - RFC-2030) or Time Protocols (RFC-868). It can be configured to full Time protocols (RFC-868) or SNTP protocols (RFC-2030) compliance, including server support.

Features:

  • Synchronize your PC's system clock or all PC's system clock in LAN using various time server types commonly available on TCP/IP networks, such as the Internet or LAN with manual and periodical operating modes.
  • Multiple time protocols are supported, include SNTP (RFC-2030), Time (RFC-868).
  • Internet Time Server is able to work as a time server so you can synchronize any computer's clock in your LAN to your PC.
  • You can synchronize the Windows, Unix, Linux, FreeBSD, etc. system clock in your LAN to your PC.
  • It can work as a Windows NT/2000/XP/Server 2003/Server 2008/Vista/7 service.
