9.5.7.5.2 61850-9-3 Power Utility Profile Server Only Mode
This section describes how to provision a PTP 61850-9-3 Power Utility Profile Server Only Mode Clock.
1.
Select Server Only for PTP Clock Mode
Select 'Server Only' from the 'PTP CLOCK MODE' dropdown.
2.
Network Protocol
By default, the 'NETWORK PROTOCOL' is set to Layer 2 (Ethernet), which will send packets via the Ethernet
data layer
3.
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.
4.
Delay Mechanism
By default the 'DELAY MECHANISM' will be set to P2P, which will set the delay mechanism to peer to peer as
defined in IEEE 1588v2-2008.
5.
Configure Priority 1 and Priority 2 Fields
Modify the 'PRIORITY #1' and 'PRIORITY #2' fields if required, otherwise it is recommended that these are left
as their default values.
These parameters modify the automatic selection of server clocks in PTP networks. Lower values mean that
the unit will be preferred against other server capable clocks during the selection process. The priority 1 value
overrides all other selection criteria including clock accuracy, so should be modified very carefully. The priority
2 value is treated as the least important criteria, providing greater selection control between otherwise-equal
clocks.
For both priority fields, the input range is 0 to 255, where 0 is the highest priority. The default setting is 128.
