Example of an NTP server
NTP server
ptbtime1.ptb.de

192.53.103.108
Substitude NTP server (optional) of the NTP server
ptbtime2.ptb.de
of
the Physikalisch-Technische Bundesanstalt in Braunschweig with the IP

192.53.103.104
Converting an IP address into a decimal number
To convert the IP address to a decimal number, use the following formula.
Starting from an IP address in the format
A.B.C.D
:
((A * 256 + B) * 256 + C) * 256 + D = IP address as a decimal number
Example of IP address 192.53.103.108
((192 * 256 + 53) * 256 + 103) * 256 + 108 = 3224725356
