I realize that the protocol has some monitoring facilities built-in, but it would be nice to utilize our standard SNMP monitoring systems to track such things as the availability of our time standards (WWV, WWVB, GPS, etc.) and peer systems. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- John K.
