Abstract:
   Various network protocols make use of binary-encoded timestamps that
   are incorporated in the protocol packet format, referred to as packet
   timestamps for short.  This document specifies guidelines for
   defining packet timestamp formats in networking protocols at various
   layers.  It also presents three recommended timestamp formats.  The
   target audience of this document includes network protocol designers.
   It is expected that a new network protocol that requires a packet
   timestamp will, in most cases, use one of the recommended timestamp
   formats.  If none of the recommended formats fits the protocol
   requirements, the new protocol specification should specify the
   format of the packet timestamp according to the guidelines in this
   document.
