This object specifies the Sntp Client Addressing modes
          
unicast:
- SNTP client operates in a point-to-point fashion.  A unicast 
client sends a request to a designated server at its unicast address
and expects a reply from which it can determine the time and, 
optionally, the round-trip delay and local clock offset relative to 
the server.
          
broadcast:
- SNTP client operates in a point-to-multipoint fashion. The SNTP
server uses an IP local broadcast address instead of a multicast
address.  The broadcast address is scoped to a single subnet, while a 
multicast address has Internet wide scope.
          
multicast:
- SNTP client operates in point-to-multipoint fashion.  The SNTP server
uses a multicast group address to send unsolicited SNTP messages to
clients.  The client listens on this address and sends no requests for
updates.
          
manycast:
- SNTP client operates in a multipoint-to-point fashion.
          
manycast(broadcast)- The SNTP client sends a request to a designated IPv4 
  	     local broadcast address.One or more manycast servers 
	     reply with their individual unicast addresses.After that
	     the communication between client and server is unicast.
          
manycast(multicast)- The SNTP client sends a request to a designated IPv4 or 
	     IPv6 multicast group address. One or more manycast 
	     servers reply with their individual unicast addresses.
	     After that the communication between client and server 
	     is unicast.This mode is currently not supported because 
	     the server is not replying in this case.
