ntpdate on port 123
I need our two PCDuinos (image trackers) to request the current time/date from our driver station laptop using ntpdate/ntpd because the PCDuinos have no battery backup. I currently have it working on our network but I am concerned that the FMS will block port 123. I noticed that port 80 is passed by the FMS. The following FMS whitepaper defines all of the ports:
http://wpilib.screenstepslive.com/s/...fms-whitepaper Has anyone successfully used ntpdate/ntp during a match? Can I switch ntpdate to use port 80? |

Re: ntpdate on port 123
What about running ntp server on the roborio?
Presumably it will have the correct date/time. Then you don't have to worry about ntpd traffic off the robot. |

Re: ntpdate on port 123
Do you actually need the time on them?
Most embedded systems will never know their current time, and don't really care. I can't imagine an image processor needing it's current time at all. |
