To configure an IEEE 1588 PTP clock on a 7705 SAR
Before you begin
You can only configure the IEEE 1588 PTP clock on a 7705 SAR that is configured as an IEEE 1588 PTP client. See To configure timing synchronization for information about how to configure the NE as a PTP client.
Steps
1 |
On the equipment tree, expand Network→NE. |
2 |
Right-click on the NE and choose Properties. The Network Element (Edit) form opens. |
3 |
Click on the IEEE PTP Clock tab and click Create. The IEEE 1588 PTP Clock (Create) form opens. |
4 |
Configure the required parameters. If you set the PTP Profile to ITU-T G.8275.1 or ITU-T G.8275.2, the Clock Local Priority parameter is configurable. You can configure the IEC/IEEE 61850.9.3 and the C37.238-2017 PTP clock only on a 7705 SAR with a CSM clock ID. Master clock is only supported for 7705 SAR devices with integrated GNSS. When you configure a 7705 SAR with the IEC/IEEE 61850.9.3 or the C37.238-2017 profile, the default settings are automatically applied. |
5 |
Select a clock MDA for the PTP clock. |
6 |
Select a source interface for the PTP clock. |
7 |
If you are configuring a 7705 SAR-8 or 7705 SAR-18, you can view the properties of the local clocks, active or standby, in the Local Clock-Active/Standby panel. |
8 |
If you set the Clock Type parameter to Boundary or Ordinary, Slave, you can view the Parent clock information in the Parent Clock panel. |
9 |
Click Apply to save your changes. |
