If i access the timestamp at receiver i will have only one point of reference to calculate the time take for the packet to travel from sender to receiver...wat can i do to get another reference time??
So i am accessing the local times at the application level at both the sender and receiver and converting it to global times to take the difference. is this wrong?? wat do you suggest that i do if i want the end to end delay from the sender to receiver???
