IP address: 10.209.170.155
Purpose: Provide GPS-referenced time synchronization for network-connected systems.
Capabilities
- NTP: Synchronizes servers, workstations, and network equipment.
- PTP: Potential grandmaster for research requiring precise synchronization.
Research considerations
Timing accuracy depends on the network path, switch capabilities, and endpoint hardware timestamping. This server’s availability does not establish that campus switches provide PTP boundary-clock or transparent-clock services.
Before use, confirm required accuracy, GPS lock, PTP settings, and network reachability. Validate synchronization performance on the research systems.
Status: Model and IP are identified; live configuration and service availability remain unverified.
