<div><p>Learn about the Simple Network Time Protocol (SNTP) and how it
is implemented on the i5/OS™ operating system.</p>
<p><img src="./delta.gif" alt="Start of change" />SNTP is used to keep device clocks in sync with each other. i5/OS SNTP
is based on Request for Comments (RFC) 2030. You can view RFC 2030 by searching
for the number with the RFC index search engine located on the RFC editor
Web site. SNTP can be useful for tracking processes and for interactions between
machines by using time stamps that are kept synchronized. Before working with
SNTP, familiarize yourself with the concepts of SNTP client and SNTP server.<img src="./deltaend.gif" alt="End of change" /></p>
