The network clock monitoring module provides network clock synchronization for all interface cards in the system. It ensures that all ports on the interface cards operate at the same clock rates for network synchronization.

The network clock monitoring module provides the following functions:

· Provides highly precise, reliable timing signal to all interface cards.

· Constantly monitors the signaling status on the interface cards.

· Selects a clock reference from available clock sources, and then distributes its timing signal to all interface cards.

· Performs phase lock to maintain a deterministic relationship between the input and output signals in frequency and phase.

Clock sources

A clock source provides timing signals for the device. Clock sources are classified into the following four types in descending order of precision.

· BITS—Building integrated timing supply (BITS) clock. The MPU has BITS ports to receive and send timing signals.

· PTP—Timing signal obtained through PTP.

· Line clock—Timing signal extracted from the signal received on a port from a higher-level device. The port is called a line processing unit (LPU) port.

· Local clock source—38.88 MHz timing signal generated by a crystal oscillator on the clock daughter card. The local clock signal has the lowest precision.

Clock source attributes

When the device receives timing signals from multiple clock sources, it will select an optimal one from the clock sources as its reference clock (reference source). In automatic clock reference selection, the clock reference is selected based on the SSM quality level and priority.

SSM quality levels

The synchronization status message (SSM) is transmitted in a synchronization distribution trail to indicate the quality of the clock source. The following are the SSM quality levels supported by the device, from the highest to the lowest:

· PRC—G.811 primary reference clock.

· SSU-A—G.812 primary-level SSU.

· SSU-B—G.812 second-level SSU.

· SEC—SDH equipment clock.

· Unknown—Synchronization quality unknown.

· DNU—Do not use for synchronization.

Priority

For a clock source to be selected as the clock reference, assign it a lower priority value than other clock sources. The lower the priority value, the better the clock source. For example, the clock source with a priority of 1 is better than the clock source with a priority of 3.

Clock reference selection

The network clock monitoring module supports automatic and manual clock reference selection.

Automatic reference selection

In an automatic reference selection process, the network clock monitoring module uses the SSM quality level, clock source priority, and clock source number to make a selection decision. The use of SSM in the automatic reference selection process is user configurable.

The selection process is as follows:

1. If SSM is enabled for automatic reference selection, the module selects the clock source with the highest SSM quality level.

2. If SSM is disabled for automatic reference selection, or clock sources have the same SSM quality level, the module selects the clock source with the lowest priority value. (A lower priority value indicates a better clock source.)

3. If the clock sources have the same priority, the module selects the clock source that has the lowest slot-number/subslot-number/port-number sequence.

After selecting the best reference, the network clock monitoring module distributes the selected timing signal to all interface cards, and locks the timing to the reference signal. When the traced timing signal is lost, the network clock monitoring module selects the next optimal clock reference. When the signal of the best clock source can be traced again, the module selects the best clock source to replace the less optimal clock source as the reference.

NOTE:

A clock source will not compete in automatic reference selection if the clock source is in one of the following conditions:

· The timing signal cannot be detected.

· The clock source priority is 255.

· The SSM quality level is DNU.

Manual reference selection

In manual reference selection mode, you specify a clock source as the reference. If the specified clock reference is invalid, the module uses the local clock timing signal. After using the specified clock reference, the network clock monitoring module does not change the clock reference automatically. When the signal of the specified clock reference is lost, the module changes to the holdover state. In this state, the module continues to distribute the signal of the clock reference to the interface cards.

Clock mode on a port

IMPORTANT:

Set the clock mode to slave on the port connected to a SONET/SDH device, because the SONET/SDH clock is more precise.

A port can operate in one of the following clock modes:

· Master—The port provides timing to the peer end. The timing signal is derived from the network clock monitoring module.

¡ If automatic reference selection is used, the timing signal is derived from the reference clock selected by the network clock monitoring module.

¡ If manual reference selection is used, the timing signal is derived from the manually specified clock reference.

¡ If the manually specified clock reference is not available, the port outputs the timing signal generated by the local clock.

· Slave—The port uses the timing signal received from the peer end. For the network clock monitoring module to extract timing signal from a port, you must place the port in slave clock mode. If the port is in master clock mode, the module does not extract the timing signal from the incoming traffic on the port.

Configuring the method for setting the SSM quality level of a clock source

About this task

The network clock monitoring module can use one of the following methods to assign an SSM quality level to the timing signal from a clock source:

· Uses the SSM quality level extracted from the received timing signal.

· Uses the SSM quality level manually assigned as described in "Specifying an SSM quality level for a clock source."

Procedure

1. Enter system view.

Configuring synchronous Ethernet (SyncE)

About synchronous Ethernet

Synchronous Ethernet (SyncE) provides high-quality frequency synchronization on Ethernet at the physical layer. It can provide the same level of clock precision as SONET/SDH.

Transferring frequency signals at the physical layer, SyncE functions regardless of the network conditions such as congestion, packet loss, and delay.

Quality levels of clocks

SyncE devices use an Ethernet synchronization messaging channel (ESMC) to transmit the quality level (QL) of their system clocks. A SyncE device uses QL information to select the optimal clock reference from all available timing sources for its system clock.

The following are the QLs supported by the device, from the highest to the lowest:

· PRC—G.811 primary reference clock.

· SSU-A—G.812 primary-level SSU.

· SSU-B—G.812 second-level SSU.

· SEC—SDH equipment clock.

· DNU—Do not use for synchronization.

· UNK—Synchronization quality unknown.

DNU clock sources cannot participate in clock reference selection.

Clock reference selection

The system clock uses the clock reference selected with the highest QL from the following sources. If these sources have the same QL, the system clock selects the clock reference by priority, from the highest to the lowest:

· External clock sources.

· Line clock sources input from interfaces.

· Internal clock sources.

The system clock uses the QL of the selected reference. Clock reference selection process starts each time the QL of a source is updated.

NOTE:

If QLs are the same on two interfaces, the clock source input from the lower-numbered interface has priority.

System clock QL distribution and SyncE port input QL updating

Distribution of the system clock QL

When distributing the QL of the system clock, the system uses the following rules:

· If the clock reference is not from a SyncE port, the system distributes the QL out of all SyncE ports.

· If the clock reference is from a SyncE port, the system distributes the QL out of all SyncE ports except for the reference input port. To prevent timing loops, the sent QL is DNU on the timing reference input port.

Input QL updating on SyncE ports

The default input QL is Unknown on a SyncE port. A SyncE port with an input QL of Unknown cannot be used as a line clock input port. The port updates its input QL when it receives a quality level higher than Unknown. The Unknown level will be restored if the port does not receive ESMC packets within 5 seconds after the update.

Configuring the HP-XGE interface

About this task

The following types of interfaces on the device are available for SyncE clock synchronization:

· HP-XGE interface on the MPU of a specific model.

The HP-XGE interface is a Layer 3 Ethernet physical interface used to connect to professional clock sources (such as GPS clock or atomic clock) in a PTP or SyncE clock synchronization network. The MPU provides two HP-XGE interfaces, with one connecting to the primary clock source and the other connecting to the backup clock source. This separation of clock signals and traffic provides the entire network with carrier-grade high reliability and high-precision synchronization.

· Service interface on the service module of a specific model.

The interface can transmit both data and clock signals simultaneously. It is typically used to connect network devices (such as switches and routers) and can transmit both SyncE clock signals and traffic, maximizing port and link utilization.

Restrictions and guidelines

The HP-XGE interface is dedicated to PTP and SyncE clock synchronization. Do not configure other services on the interface.
