Richard, Yes, you point out the second problem other than the IPv6 problem. The string you see usually applies to the local clock, or any other reference clock operated at a stratum other than one. Perhaps the most elegant solution is for the local clock driver to insert the IPv4 host address or IPv6 hash as the reference ID.
