● Second scheme:
The number of seconds between synchronization activities can be set in the "Second
scheme" drop-down list box.
● Time of day:
Synchronization takes place once a day. Set the time of day for the synchronization in the
"Time of day" drop-down list box (for example 01:00).
On dedicated lines, a synchronization cycle of 1 hour is recommended and in dial-up
networks, once a day, for example at 01:00 a.m.
In dial-up networks, time synchronization can also be used to check the availability of a
subscriber and to fetch data.
Which TIM is synchronization master on this WAN is decided automatically based on the
configuration of the network attachments in the properties dialog of the network node.
Node List tab
The node list displays all the communication subscribers connected to the current network;
in other words, TIM modules. It also lists the station name, the WAN address and the
configured node type making it easy to check these parameters throughout the network.
