A new Request for Comments is now available in online RFC libraries. RFC 8877 Title: Guidelines for Defining Packet Timestamps Author: T. Mizrahi, J. Fabini, A. Morton Status: Informational Stream: IETF Date: September 2020 Mailbox: tal.mizrahi.phd@gmail.com, joachim.fabini@tuwien.ac.at, acmorton@att.com Pages: 17 Updates/Obsoletes/SeeAlso: None I-D Tag: draft-ietf-ntp-packet-timestamps-09.txt URL: https://www.rfc-editor.org/info/rfc8877 DOI: 10.17487/RFC8877 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. This document is a product of the Network Time Protocol Working Group of the IETF. INFORMATIONAL: This memo provides information for the Internet community.
