Default Propagation time

Yes, that's the accuracy I need. The application is very sensitive to
propagation time. The equipment will ping the circuit when the call is set
up in order to measure round-trip delay. What I want to know is, can the
delay change during the call because of IP packet delays? If IP isn't used,
that's what I need to know.
