If the RFC explicitly says "*unsigned* 32-bit time interval", yes, but with the lack of "unsigned" (while explicitly using "unsigned" for SERIAL and MINIMUM) it seemed ambiguous. That's why I asked the question in the first place. > That said slaves can and do apply sanity > checks to these values. Both too low and too high cause operational > problems. Agreed, I already noted essentially the same point in my first message. Anyway, my interpretation of the responses so far (or the lack of thereof) is that no one knows (or cares about) the exact range (per protocol standard) for these parameters. That's not the best result I wished to see, but at least it looks like I didn't miss anything obvious for others. -- JINMEI, Tatuya
