  • Page 2: Configuring Network Synchronization

    Configuring network synchronization About network synchronization The network clock monitoring module provides network clock synchronization for all interface cards in the system. It ensures that all ports on the interface cards operate at the same clock rates for network synchronization. The network clock monitoring module provides the following functions: •...
  • Page 3: Clock Reference Selection

    Clock reference selection The network clock monitoring module supports automatic and manual clock reference selection. Automatic reference selection In an automatic reference selection process, the network clock monitoring module uses the SSM quality level, clock source priority, and clock source number to make a selection decision. The use of SSM in the automatic reference selection process is user configurable.

    • Slave—The port uses the timing signal received from the peer end. For the network clock monitoring module to extract timing signal from a port, you must place the port in slave clock mode. If the port is in master clock mode, the module does not extract the timing signal from the incoming traffic on the port.

    It takes time for the clock reference selection mode change to take effect. To verify the effectiveness of the change, you can also check the logs. Configuring BITS clocks Setting an Sa bit for the SSM of BITS clocks About setting an Sa bit for the SSM of BITS clocks Sa bits from Sa4 through Sa8 can be used to transmit the SSM quality level of BITS timing signal.

  • Page 10: Configuring Synchronous Ethernet

    Configuring synchronous Ethernet About synchronous Ethernet Synchronous Ethernet (SyncE) provides high-quality frequency synchronization on Ethernet at the physical layer. It can provide the same level of clock precision as SONET/SDH. Transferring frequency signals at the physical layer, SyncE functions regardless of the network conditions such as congestion, packet loss, and delay.
  • Page 11: Protocols And Standards

    • If the clock reference is not from a SyncE port, the system distributes the QL out of all SyncE ports. • If the clock reference is from a SyncE port, the system distributes the QL out of all SyncE ports except for the reference input port.
