The Tick History infrastructure applies (in hardware, to the ethernet frames) a nanosecond precision timestamp, with 4ns resolution, to every message, at time of receipt.


Primary and DR infrastructures are geographically seperated (Misouri and Texas) and thus the laws of physics dictate that these internal timestamps will differ between them. For sake of clarity, the internal timestamp is not aligned with source timestamps.
