RubyPtp

ruby_ptp is a small daemon implementing the PTPv2 protocol for timing in networks. Currently running this program will leak memory as all runtime data is stored for testing porposes. If running this program in a live setting, these features must be rewritten. The code is higly experimental as it has been developed as part of a bachelor thesis. Please think about this before running this program in production!
