Hi,

Are you sure that the below is caused by a clock drift?
A reset of the engine boots counter at the manager
seems to be more likely.

You are right, that a notInTimeWindow error/report should be
returned if the times of sender and responder are not in sync.

Doing an automated rediscovery is a security issue.

Best regards,
Frank
