About this Guide
Use this guide to learn more about the Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) capabilities on a Juniper Networks®
ACX7024 Cloud Metro router. In this guide, you will learn how to connect an ACX7024 router to a FURUNO TB-1
GNSS receiver.
As a network or system administrator you can use this guide to install the FURUNO TB-1 GNSS receiver on an
ACX7024 router.
Overview
Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) capability is essential for the Grand Master (GM) clock functionality. A GNSS
receiver receives signals from a navigation satellite constellation. The GNSS receiver gains precise phase and time
information by processing these signals and delivers the information across the network.

  • Page 15 Syntax clock-mode (ordinary); Hierarchy Level [edit protocols ptp] Description Configure the clock mode as ordinary clock with GNSS configuration. The clock mode determines whether the node behaves as a client or primary node. This attribute is mandatory and has no default value. Options ordinary—The clock mode of the node is a system clock that acts either as a primary node or as a client node.
  • Page 16 [edit protocols ptp] Description On ACX7024 router, configure the G.8275.1 profile for GNSS configuration that require accurate phase and time synchronization. This profile supports the architecture defined in ITU-T G.8271.1 specification to enable the distribution of phase and time with full timing support. This profile requires all devices in the network to operate in combined or hybrid modes.
