1094745RFC #791, Section 3.1 ‘Options: Internet Timestamp’ states that “the [Internet] Timestamp is a right-justified, 32-bit timestamp in milliseconds since midnight UT [Universal Time]”. Anchor12087011208701

The application is responsible for providing a real-time clock with correct time-zone configuration to implement the Internet Timestamp, if possible. In order to implement this feature, the target hardware must usually include a real-time clock with the correct time zone configuration. However, NetUtil_TS_Get() is not absolutely required and may return NET_TS_NONE if real-time clock hardware is not available.
