Abstract:
A network element for distributing timing information includes a signal interface for receiving satellite signals transmitted by a satellite system and a processing system for producing the timing information based on the satellite signals and on assistance information received from a data transfer network. The network element transmits the timing information to the data transfer network in accordance with a timing transfer protocol. At a start-up, the network element requests a dynamic host configuration protocol server to send host configuration data containing a protocol address to be associated with the network element. The network element reads, from the host configuration data, information enabling the network element to get aware of the assistance information and obtains the assistance information in accordance with the read information. Thus, the dynamic host configuration protocol server enables the network element to operate as a network-assisted source of satellite-based timing.

Claim (Index 24):
A dynamic host configuration protocol server comprising a data interface for connecting to a data transfer network and a processing system adapted to:\n allocate, in response to receiving a request from a network element of the data transfer network, a protocol address to be associated with the network element, control the dynamic host configuration protocol server to transmit, to the network element, host configuration data containing the allocated protocol address, and provide the host configuration data with information enabling the network element to get aware of assistance information assisting the network element to produce timing information based on one or more satellite signals transmitted by a satellite system, wherein the timing information enables the network element to operate as a timing source, the satellite system is a Global Navigation Satellite System, and the assistance information is based on A-GPS assistance data.
