Messages Statistics - Net research NetProbe 2000 User Manual

Messages statistics

There are two types of message in the PTP protocol: event messages and general messages. Event messages are
time-critical and an accurate timestamp is generated both at transmission and receipt of the message. Sync,
Delay_Req, Pdelay_Req, Pdelay_Resp are event messages. General messages do not require timestamps but may
contain timestamps for their associated event message.
Announce, Follow_Up, Delay_Resp,
PDelay_Resp_Follow_Up, Management, Signaling are general messages.
NetProbe2000 provides information for all transmitted
and received PTP messages in the current domain.
Rates of messages taking part in the synchronization
process are also reported.
