Not showing microseconds or still showing only the pattern (if i
understood correctly what you mentioned earlier ) -
yyyy-mm-ddThh:mm:ss.000001-0500
?

As they do show up as expected at least in the test set ups (this one
below is with an Intel NIC) -
"timestamp":"2018-03-15T11:22:43.869423+0100"
"timestamp":"2018-03-15T11:22:43.923182+0100"
"timestamp":"2018-03-15T11:22:46.677016+0100"
"timestamp":"2018-03-15T11:23:02.030184+0100"
"timestamp":"2018-03-15T11:23:09.378716+0100"
