in.daytimed(1M)		System Administration Commands	       in.daytimed(1M)

NAME
       in.daytimed - UDP or TCP daytime protocol service daemon

SYNOPSIS
       in.daytimed

       FMRI svc:/internet/daytime:default

DESCRIPTION
       FMRI  stands  for  Fault	 Management Resource Identifier. It is used to
       identify resources managed  by  the  Fault  Manager.  See  fmd(1M)  and
       smf(5).

       The  in.daytimed service provides the server-side of the daytime proto‐
       col. This protocol is used for debugging and bandwidth measurement  and
       is available on both TCP and UDP transports, through port 13.

       The  in.daytimed	 service is an inetd(1M) smf(5) delegated service. The
       in.daytimed detects which  transport  is	 requested  by	examining  the
       socket it is passed by the inetd daemon.

       TCP-based service    Once  a connection is established, the in.daytimed
			    generates the current date and time	 in  ctime(3C)
			    format  as	7-bit  ASCII  and sends it through the
			    connection. The server then closes the connection.
			    Any data received from the client side of the con‐
			    nection is discarded.

       UDP-based service    The in.daytimed listens for UDP datagrams. When  a
			    datagram  is  received,  the  server generates the
			    current date and time in ctime(3C) format as 7-bit
			    ASCII  and	inserts	 it  in a UDP datagram sent in
			    response to the  client's  request.	 Any  received
			    data is ignored.
