| ## Overview - Planning Your DTS Implementation This topic describes how to plan your DCE Distributed Time Service (DTS) implementation, including personnel selection for the planning process and planning for DTS on a LAN, an extended LAN, or a WAN. DTS installation is described in OSF DCE Administration Guide - Introduction, so installation considerations are only included in this topic by reference. It is important to note, however, that many of the planning considerations for DTS are tied to the overall planning of the DCE, especially the CDS and Security components. (See OSF DCE Administration Guide - Introduction for background information on the interdependencies between the DCE components.) ##
