General

The following devices support time-of-day synchronization using PTP:
● SCALANCE XR528-6M
● SCALANCE XR552-12M
IEEE 1588 with SCALANCE devices
The IEEE 1588v2 standard defines mechanisms with which highly precise time of day
synchronization of devices in a network can be achieved. SCALANCE devices with suitable
hardware support time synchronization according to IEEE 1588v2. The functionality is disabled
on these devices when they are shipped and following a "Reset to factory default". To be able
to use PTP, enable this function and configure every port that is on the synchronization path
as well as ports that are blocked due to redundancy mechanisms. PTP can also be used with
redundancy mechanisms in the ring such as HRP, standby linking of rings, MRP and RSTP.
The following sections describe the configuration options of Web Based Management.
