9.5.7.2.3 End to End Default Profile Client Only Mode
This section describes how to provision a PTP End to End Default Profile Client Only Mode Clock.
1.
Select Client Only for PTP Clock Mode
Select 'Client Only' from the 'PTP CLOCK MODE' dropdown.
2.
Select Network Protocol
Select the network protocol PTP will operate on using the 'NETWORK PROTOCOL' dropdown.
The Network protocol should be consistent across the network subnet. The supported options are IPv4 (layer
4) and PTP over Ethernet (layer 2). By default the network protocol is set to IPv4 (UDP).
Note:
IPv4 is the most common PTP Network Protocol.
3.
By default the 'DELAY MECHANISM' will be set to E2E, which will set the delay mechanism to end to end as
defined in IEEE 1588v2-2008.
4.
Select Operating Mode
Select the operating mode for the PTP network from the 'OPERATING MODE' dropdown.
Operating mode is a network wide parameter. The configurable options are 'One Step' or 'Two Step'.
Note:
Select Two Step operation if the Operating Mode is unknown.
5.
Delay Mechanism
By default the 'DELAY MECHANISM' will be set to E2E, which will set the delay mechanism to end to end as
defined in IEEE 1588v2-2008.
6.
Configure Default Domain
Modify the 'DEFAULT DOMAIN' number if required, otherwise it is recommended that it is left as its default
value of '0'.
A domain consists of one or more PTP devices communicating with each other. By default, PTP aware
devices are configured with a domain of '0'. Changing the domain will cause only devices with the specified
domain to communicate using the PTP protocol. The input range is 0 to 127.
