After starting, the device sends requests to the
SNTP
server configured in the first table entry. When
the server does not reply, the device sends its requests to the
SNTP
server configured in the next
table entry.
If none of the configured
SNTP
servers responds in the meantime, then the
SNTP
client interrupts
its synchronization. The device cyclically sends requests to each
SNTP
server until a server delivers
a valid time. The device synchronizes itself with this
SNTP
server, even if the other servers can be
reached again later.

SNTP
server.

The device has successfully synchronized the time with the
SNTP
server.

SNTP
server - synchronization failed.
or
– The
SNTP
client is using a different
SNTP
server.
requestTimedOut
The device has not received a reply from the
SNTP
server - synchronization failed.
serverKissOfDeath
The
SNTP
server is overloaded. The device is requested to synchronize itself with another
SNTP
server. When no other
SNTP
server is available, the device checks at intervals longer than the
setting in the
Request interval [s]
field, if the server is still overloaded.
