The configuration examples in this document were created and verified in a lab environment, and all the devices were started with the factory default configuration. When you are working on a live network, make sure you understand the potential impact of every command on your network.

This document assumes that you have basic knowledge of PTP.

Example: Configuring Layer 2 IEEE 1588v2 PTP

Network configuration

As shown in Figure 1, a PTP domain contains Device A, Device B, and Device C. Configure Layer 2 IEEE 1588v2 PTP as follows for time synchronization:

· Specify the IEEE 1588v2 PTP profile for the devices.

· Specify the OC clock node type for Device A and Device C, and E2ETC clock node type for Device B. These clock nodes elect a GM through BMC based on their respective default GM attributes.

· Use the default Request-Response delay measurement mechanism for Device A and Device C.

As shown in Figure 1, a PTP domain contains Device A, Device B, and Device C. Configure IEEE 802.1AS PTP as follows for time synchronization:

· Specify the IEEE 802.1AS PTP profile for Device A, Device B, and Device C.

· Specify the OC clock node type for Device A and Device C, and P2PTC clock node type for Device B. These clock nodes elect a GM through BMC based on their respective default GM attributes.

· Use the default peer delay measurement mechanism on all clock nodes in the PTP domain.

Example: Configuring PTP (SMPTE ST 2059-2, IPv4 UDP transport, unicast transmission)

Network configuration

As shown in Figure 6, configure PTP (SMPTE ST 2059-2, IPv4 UDP transport, unicast transmission) to enable Device A, Device B, Device C, and the base station to synchronize time with the ToD clock source.

· Specify the SMPTE ST 2059-2 PTP profile and unicast IPv4 UDP transport of PTP messages for Device A, Device B, and Device C.

· Assign Device A, Device B, Device C, and the base station to PTP domain 0. Specify the BC clock node type for Device A, Device B, and Device C.

· Connect Device A to the ToD clock source and Device C to the base station.

· Use the default Request_Response delay measurement mechanism on all clock nodes in the PTP domain.

Procedures

IMPORTANT:

The SMPTE ST 2059-2 PTP profile supports IPv4 UDP transport rather than IEEE 802.3/Ethernet transport of PTP messages. It supports both multicast and unicast transmission of PTP messages.

IMPORTANT:

The device does not provide ToD interfaces. It can be deployed as Device B or Device C but not Device A.

‌

Before configuration, assign IP addresses to the interfaces, and make sure the devices can reach each other. (Details not shown.)

Verifying the configuration

IMPORTANT:

· The Lock status field in the output from the display ptp clock command is available only for the S6550XE-HI switch series and S6525XE-HI switch series.

· The InstID field in the output from the display ptp interface brief command is available only for the S6550XE-HI switch series and S6525XE-HI switch series.

When the network is stable, perform the following tasks to verify the PTP configuration:

· Use the display ptp clock command to display PTP clock information.

· Use the display ptp interface brief command to display brief PTP running information.
