LANTIME M900 NTP Server: NTP Timeserver Platform for Customized Time and Frequency Synchronization Systems
The Meinberg LANTIME M900 Timeserver can be used all around the world to synchronize even the largest networks in computer centers, industrial network infrastructures and telecom environments. The M900 is Meinbergs system platform for customized solutions and offers a wide range of possible configurations, including a wealth of choices for time and frequency inputs and outputs as well as redundancy enhancements for fail-safe synchronization needs.

Key Features
- Synchronization of NTP and SNTP compatible clients - Web based status and configuration interface [1](Demo) and console based graphical configuration utility - Supported networking protocols: IPv4, IPv6, HTTPS, HTTP, SSH, TELNET, SCP, SFTP, FTP, SYSLOG, SNMP - Alert-Notification system of status change by Email, WinMail, SNMP or an external connected display - Full SNMP v1,v2,v3 support with own SNMP-daemon for status and configuration and SNMP Trap messages - USB Port for installing firmware updates, locking frontpanel menu access and backup/restore of configuration and log files - Antenna connected with up to 300m of standard coaxial cable RG58 - Up to 9 network interfaces

Description
The LANTIME M900 offers a lot of space for output modules and several power supply options in its 3U rackmount chassis. This allows for a large number of different outputs like 1PPS, 10MHz, IRIG, serial timestrings or up to 7 Ethernet ports to support large network infrastructures. Meinberg will create an individual solution based on your specific requirements, please [2]contact us. As an alternative to GPS a number of other reference time sources are available for inclusion in the M900 system, for example DCF77 (PZF), IRIG (TCR), MSF or NTP (from an upstream server). An LC Display shows the status of the reference time source as well as the time service. Additionally three bi-color (green/red) LEDs clearly indicate the state of the three main components (time source, network time service, network) and a red alarm LED signals major system failures. The configuration and control of the system can be carried out via a powerful yet easily understandable web user interface, a text-based console setup tool is available for easy access to most configuration options and status information when you logged in via SSH, Telnet or the serial front port. The security features of Meinberg's LANTIME time servers comply with highest standards: The time synchronization can reliably ensure time integrity via symmetric keys or the NTPv4 autokey feature by allowing the clients to check that the time information is really coming from the trusted LANTIME and is not spoofed by a man-in-the-middle attacker. All configuration and management channels can be accessed via secure protocols like SSH, HTTPS or SNMPv3. Last but not least the LANTIME follows a basic security principle by running only the services that have been enabled by the user and keep all unneeded ports closed in order to further reduce the possibilities of a cyber attack. All major network management systems (NMS) can access a wealth of vital information via the LANTIME'S powerful SNMP management interface which supports SNMP V1, V2c and V3 and smoothly integrates your time server services into your general network management concepts. Unlike other time server products the LANTIME familiy of time servers supports configuration changes via SNMP and therefore allows for automated reactions to critical situations as well as non-interactive setting up or reconfiguring your time server if a certain situation occurs. LANTIME time servers are designed to be used in pure IPv6 networks as well as dual stack networks, not only the NTP time service is IPv6 capable but also management and configuration protocols like SNMP, SSH or HTTP(S) can be used over IPv6. The system supports multiple IPv6 addresses for each interface by specifying a manual IP address and use autoconf capabilities to setup link global adresses as well as the automatic link local adress configuration. The M900 platform can be combined with all available Meinberg oscillator options, ranging from the cost effective TCXO up to a Rubidium based oscillator with extremely stable holdover capabilities, ensuring a tighly synchronized network environment in the absence of any external reference, even if this situation lasts for days, weeks or even months. Please note that the following technical specifications for pulse, frequency and serial outputs are based on a sample configuration and can be modified in order to fulfill your individual requirements.
