67. Precision Time Protocol (PTP) Commands
766

Parameters
None.

Restrictions
Only Administrator, Operator and Power-User level users can issue this command.
 Example
To disable the PTP function globally:
67.3. config ptp mode

Description
This command is used to configure the PTP device type of the Switching Hub. The
Switching Hub supports three PTP device types, which the user can set globally.
A Boundry Clock:
•
Has multiple Precision Time Protocol (PTP) ports in a domain and maintains the
timescale used in the domain.
•
Can serve as the time source and can synchronize with another clock.
• Device type can choose to use the delay request-response mechanism or the peer
delay mechanism to measure the propagation delay between the PTP ports.
A clock that provides Precision Time Protocol (PTP) event transit time information
also provides corrections for the propagation delay of the link. The link, in this case, is
connected to the port that is receiving the PTP event messages. Ports on peer-to-peer
transparent clocks use the peer delay mechanism to calculate the propagation delay
between PTP ports.
An End-to-End Transparent Clock supports the use of an end-to-end delay
measurement mechanism between the slave clock and the master clock. Ports on end-
to-end transparent clocks are independent of propagation delay mechanisms.
 Format
config ptp mode [boundary | p2p_transparent | e2e_transparent]

Parameters
Zxxx0:admin# disable ptp

Success.
Zxxx0:admin#
boundary
Specifies the Switch as a Boundary Clock.
