To configure the IEEE 1588 PTP peer of a 7210 SAS, 7250 IXR, 7450 ESS, or 7750 SR

Purpose

Perform this procedure to configure IEEE 1588 PTP peers for a device that has the IEEE 1588 PTP clock configured. See To configure the IEEE 1588 PTP clock on a 7210 SAS, 7250 IXR, 7450 ESS, or 7750 SR for information about how to configure the IEEE 1588 PTP clock on a device.

For 7250 IXR-e CPM GNSS with the ITU-T G.8265.1 profile, PTP peer creation is only supported for the ordinary slave clock profile.

Steps
 

In the navigation tree equipment view, right-click on the required device and choose Properties. The Network Element (Edit) form opens.


Click on the IEEE PTP Clock tab.


Choose an entry from the list and click Properties. The IEEE 1588 PTP Clock (Edit) form opens.


Click on the IEEE PTP Peers tab.


Click Create, or choose an IEEE 1588 PTP peer from the list and click Properties. The IEEE 1588 PTP Peer (Create|Edit) form opens.

The number of peers that you can create varies depending on the NE. When the limit is reached, the Create button is not available.

Alternatively, you can create IEEE PTP peers by right-clicking on the Clock object in the navigation tree and choosing Create IEEE PTP Peer.


Configure the required parameters.


Save and close the forms.
