Parameter Description
Time Sync Mode Click a radio button to select the required mode. Note that the PTP

PTP Network
Interface
Set the check boxes to enable the network interfaces on which PTP is
supported. Enable check boxes as required.
Ethernet 1: represents the rear panel SFP1 connection.
Ethernet 2: represents the rear panel SFP2 connection.
See Connections and Cabling on page 53 for connector
information.
The
Preference
pulldown sets the primary interface to use. If the
primary interface fails, the alternate interface (if enabled) will be
switched to automatically.
None: PTP will fail over from one to the next in the absence of sync
messages. Once failed over, it shall remain on that port until it fails
over again.
Ethernet 1: If Ethernet 1 is available, it has priority. Thus, if there is a
failover from Ethernet 1 to Ethernet 2, as soon as Ethernet 1 becomes
available again, it will switch back to Ethernet 1.
Ethernet 2:
as per Ethernet 1 but for Ethernet 2.
