Configuring The Port Type For A Tc+Oc; Configuring The Interval For Sending Announce Messages - HP 5920 Configuration Manual

Step
1. Enter system view.
2. Enter Layer 2 Ethernet
interface view or Layer 3
Ethernet interface view.
3. Specify a delay measurement
mechanism for a BC or OC.

Configuring the port type for a TC+OC

All ports on a TC+OC (E2ETC+OC or P2PTC+OC) are TCs by default. This command allows you to
configure one of the ports as an OC. This task is applicable to E2ETC+OCs and P2PTC+OCs only.
When a TC+OC is synchronizing time to a downstream clock node through a TC, do not enable an OC
to synchronize time from the downstream clock node. Otherwise, time synchronization might be affected.
To configure the port type for a TC+OC as OC:
Step
1. Enter system view.
2. Enter Layer 2 Ethernet
interface view or Layer 3
Ethernet interface view.
3. Configure the port type for a
TC+OC as OC.

Configuring the interval for sending announce messages

Step
1. Enter system view.
2. Enter Layer 2 Ethernet
interface view or Layer 3
Ethernet interface view.
3. Configure the interval for
sending announce messages.

By default:
•
The interval is 2 1 seconds if the
PTP standard is IEEE 1588
Version 2.
•
The interval is 2 0 seconds if the
PTP standard is IEEE 802.1AS.
