IEEE 1588-2008 (PTPv2)
The IEEE 1588-2008 (PTPv2) module offers interoperability with a wide range of
3rd party devices. It has been specifically designed to work as PTP master while
supporting the following profiles:

The following table compares the configuration of IEEE-1588 (PTP) when using
or not a valid license.

Caution:
Limitation on packet rate: It is not recommended to dis-
tribute PTP at full packets rate (128 pkt/s) on all its 16 network inter-
faces at the same time. In advanced configuration the user can
modify CPU priorities to avoid dropping packets on most critical
ports. Unicast negotiation can also be used to smartly decrease the
packet rate depending on CPU load.
Note:
PTP License: A specific license must be purchased in order to
get full access to the IEEE 1588- 2008 (PTPv2) module. When no
license is provided, the PTP instance will start with default profile and
parameters. The user will only be allowed to configure the Role of the
port (Master, Slave & Disabled).
