30.5 Internal NTP Implementation
The following figure illustrates the internal implementation of the time and date
synchronization service inside the Media Gateway chassis. Note the following:

SC boards operate as NTP clients towards external NTP servers and the EMS
server. They also operate as NTP servers for VoP boards inside the chassis,
providing time and date synchronization to the latter.

Peer connection between the SC boards ensures that time and date within the
Media Gateway is maintained even when the connection to external NTP servers
are not available.

SC boards are capable of preserving accurate time and date for 7 days in case of
the Media Gateway isolation from external NTP servers.
