3 The Modular System LANTIME
3 The Modular System LANTIME
LANTIME is a set of equipment composed of a reference clock IMS-CLK, a single-board computer (LAN-CPU)
with integrated network card, and a power supply unit, all installed in a metal desktop case and ready to
operate. The interfaces provided by LANTIME are accessible via connectors in the rear panel of the case.
Details of the components are described below.
The implemented NTPD distributes the reference time from the IMS-CLK receiver cyclic in the network. Infor-
mation on the NTPD is monitored on the LC-Display or can be inquired via the network.
The installation of LANTIME is very easy for the system/network administrator. The network address, the
netmask and the default gateway have to be configured from the front panel of LANTIME. The network address
or the equivalent name of LANTIME has to be shown to all NTP clients in the TCP/IP network.
As well as NTP the Linux system also supports a number of further network protocols: HTTP(S), FTP, SSH
and Telnet. Because of this remote configuration or status requests can come from any WEB browser. This
access via the network can be deactivated. Changes in the receiver status, errors or other important events are
logged either on the local Linux system or on an external SYSLOG-Server. In addition messages can be sent to
a data center via SNMP traps or automatically generated e-mails where they can be recorded. Furthermore all
alarm messages can be displayed by the large display VP100/20/NET that is accessed via network connection.
In order to avoid a service interruption several LANTIME NTP servers can be installed in the same network to
obtain redundancy.

4 Network Timeserver with synchronized time
base
The LANTIME (Local Area Network Time Server) provides a high precision time base to a TCP/IP network
(Stratum-1-Server). The NTP (Network Time Protocol) is used to synchronize all NTP clients with the ref-
erence. The several LANTIME variants differ from each other by the time reference and output configuration.
A GNSS receiver (GPS, GLONASS, Galileo or BeiDou), a long wave receiver (like DCF77, MSF or WWVB)
or an IRIG time code receiver can be integrated as an internal reference as well as a combination of these
references (hybrid system). External references are also possible.
The LANTIME system is a set of equipment composed of a internal receiver, a single-board computer and
a power supply, all installed in a metal 19 inch modular chassis and ready to operate. A simplified LINUX
operating system is installed on the single-board computers flash disk. Eight push buttons and a display can
be used to configure and monitor the time server.
After the network connection has been established the time server can also be configured and monitored
remotely from a workstation via TELNET or FTP. An integrated web server enables access to the LANTIME by
using an ordinary web browser.
