Details
TOD (Time of Day / Time Protocol) is a simple and outdated protocol for time synchronisation.
It is defined in RFC-868 from 1983 and uses Port-37-udp or Port-37-tcp. It is an old predecessor of the NTP protocol.
It uses a 32-bit integer to specify the time in seconds since the Epoch 1900-01-01 UTC and will work until 2036.
Today this protocol is obsolete and replaced by NTP or SNTP.
FRITZ!OS
All cable models have the ti_todc client installed which can load the libdocsis_todplg.so protocol support plugin.
inetd has builtin support for the time protocol if these lines are added to inetd.conf:
time stream tcp nowait root internal time dgram udp wait root internal
However, this is not used in FRITZ!OS in favor of NTP / SNTP.
