The DeltaV system supports both a primary and an optional backup Network Time Server on the control network. The Network Time Servers can be attached to either the primary or the secondary control network. It is recommended that the primary Network Time Server be attached to the primary control network and the backup Network Time Server be attached to the secondary control network in a redundant control network system. If the system is simplex (has only a primary control network) attach both Network Time Servers to the primary control network.
For the primary Network Time Server use the following IP addresses:
For the backup Network Time Server use the following IP addresses:
The DeltaV system also supports both a primary and backup Network Time Server on the DeltaV Remote Network. If you are attaching a Network Time Server to a DeltaV Remote Network, the IP address is not predefined in the DeltaV system. Your network administrator must assign the Network Time Server a valid IP address for the remote network segment and this address must be used in the Remote Network properties dialog box in the DeltaV Explorer.
