Configuring Timing
9.5 Timing Configuration Examples
This section provides examples of how to set the switchclock on various types of switches. For
more information about the specific timing commands, see the AMI Configuration Commands
Reference Manual.
If you have a TCM installed in your switch, see the CEC-Plus User’s Manual for information
about configuring timing with a TCM. All examples in this chapter assume that you do not
have a TCM installed.
9.5.1 Configuring Timing on an ASX-200BX or ASX-200WG
This example assumes that you are going to use 1A1 as your primary clock and 1B1 as your
secondary clock. Use the following ATM Management Interface (AMI) commands to set your
primary and secondary switchclocks:
conf timing switchclock primary 1a1
conf timing switchclock secondary 1b1
9.5.2 Configuring Timing on an ASX-1000 (Single Timing Domain)
This example assumes that you are going to use 3A1 as your primary clock and 3B1 as your
secondary clock. The only limitation on an ASX-1000 is that you must configure both the pri-
mary and secondary clocks to be on the same fabric. On all fabrics installed in the switch, use
the following AMI commands to set your primary and secondary clocks as follows:
conf timing switchclock primary 3a1
conf timing switchclock secondary 3b1
