0 31 32 Bits 0-31 of Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) as a count of 100-nanosecond
intervals since 00:00:00.00, 15 October 1582, encoded as big-endian 32-bit
number.
32 47 16 Bits 32-47 of UTC as a count of 100-nanosecond intervals since 00:00:00.00,
15 October 1582, encoded as big-endian 16-bit number.
48 59 12 Bits 48-59 of UTC as a count of 100-nanosecond intervals since 00:00:00.00,
15 October 1582, encoded as big-endian 16-bit number.
60 63 4 UUID version number: always equal to 1 (DCE UUID).
64 69 6 most-significants bits of random number, which generated from the server
process PID and Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) as a count of 100-nanosecond
intervals since 00:00:00.00, 15 October 1582.
70 71 2 UID variant: always equal to binary 10 (DCE variant).
72 79 8 8 least-significant bits of random number, which generated from the server
process PID and Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) as a count of 100-nanosecond
intervals since 00:00:00.00, 15 October 1582.
80 80 1 Random bit ("unique node identifier").
81 81 1 Always equal to the one ("locally administered MAC address").
82 127 46 Random bits ("unique node identifier"): readed from the /dev/urandom
or (if /dev/urandom is unavailable) generated based on the server process PID,
current time and bits of the default "zero node identifier" (entropy data).
