The intention

15、of this part of SANS 1718 is to place sufficient controls on software and operations to ensure that wagering is fair, safe, secure, reliable, and auditable. It is not the intention of this standard to unreasonably mandate a single solution or method of realizing an objective, limit technology applic

16、ation of software, limit creativity and variety of choice, limit marketability, or advantage any supplier or manufacturer of software. Alternative implementations to the requirements contained in this part of SANS 1718 will be considered on a case-by-case basis by the provincial licensing authority

17、(PLA). Situations or considerations arising from evaluation of systems that have not been addressed in this part of SANS 1718 (e.g. owing to omissions or to the use of new technology) will be resolved at the sole discretion of the PLA as part of the approval process. SANS 1718-10 Edition 1 3 Gaming

18、equipment Part 10: Server-based gaming systems 1 Scope This standard gives requirements for all computer system configurations and their associated components used for server-based gaming. The requirements include, but are not limited to a) gaming devices comprised of a collection of conventional ga

19、ming devices or client stations connected to a system for the purposes of downloading games or control programs but capable of operating independently such that the game outcome is determined by the gaming device or client station and not by the system, and b) gaming devices comprised of a server or

20、 system part and client stations that, together, form a single integrated device where the system portion of the game determines the outcomes of the individual games conducted on the client stations and the client stations cannot operate independently from the system. This standard also covers situa

21、tions where the servers might be situated off-site but all player interaction for the purposes of gambling takes place on licensed premises. It does not include additional requirements that might be specified by the PLA for applications where the server is based off-site. NOTE 1 If the regulator per

22、mits such configurations then there might be additional requirements for security of data transfer between the licensed premises and the game server. NOTE 2 A system might be comprised of one or more servers, any server might contain games supplied by different manufacturers, and there might be a se

23、parate server for monitoring and control. However, separate networks for the gaming server(s) and the monitoring and control system are not mandated. It is also not mandated whether the system is to be a single computer server or multiple computer servers. 2 Normative references SANS 1718-1, Gaming

38、uipment The requirements for player terminals, including game design and artwork, are contained in SANS 1718-1. The requirements for the monitoring and control system and all communication systems are contained in SANS 1718-3. If the regulator permits server-based gaming technology to be used for th

39、e limited payout machine routes, then reference should be made to SANS 1718-2 for additional requirements for such player terminals and to SANS 1718-9 for the requirements for the connection of these to the central electronic monitoring system. 4.2 Requirements for the games 4.2.1 Games offered for

40、play shall comply with the relevant requirements of SANS 1718-1, but references in SANS 1718-1 to reportable events occurring on a player terminal (e.g. configuration changes) are understood to also refer to such events occurring on or at the server. 4.2.2 Configuration or parameter changes to games

41、 shall not occur while play is in progress. Play shall be deemed to have stopped when there are no credits on the credit meter and where either a cash-out has occurred or there has been no play for at least three minutes. 4.3 Time stamping 4.3.1 All game results, messages, significant events or play

42、er-related information (if applicable) transmitted on the system shall be suitably time stamped in the following format: C C Y Y M M D D h h m m s s . f f Z Where each of the characters with the exception of the last is a substitute for a single digit: CC represents the centuries (19-99), YY represe

43、nts the years (00-99), MM represents the actual month (01-12), DD represents the actual day of the month (01-31), hh represents the actual hour of the day (00-23), mm stands for the minutes of the hour (00-59), ss represents the seconds of the minute (00-59), and ff is an abbreviation for fractions

44、of a second without trailing 0. The Character Z (Zulu Time) stands for Universal Time Coordinated (UTC). The square brackets around fractions of a second (i.e. .ff) denote that the use of this part of the time stamping sequence is optional and depends on the application. SANS 1718-10 Edition 1 7 NOT
