Configuration Examples Of Synce On Asr9000 Hosts - Cisco ASR 9000 Series System Configuration Manual

Configuring the Satellite Network Virtualization (nV) System
• The host is configured to derive a frequency signal from the external clock source and to provide frequency
• No satellite based configuration is required. The user must configure the frequency synchronization
• After receiving the valid SyncE signal and the Quality Level (QL) that the associated Ethernet
• You can configure any downstream device to synchronize with this SyncE signal.
Basic Configuration:
• Configuration of Frequency Synchronization on the host(s) includes:
• SyncE is disabled by default. It will be automatically enabled on the satellite after ESMC packet is
• Frequency Synchronization show commands on the host to verify the state of the satellite. The show

feature considering the host as a standalone or non-nV device. The user must configure SyncE on the
fabric interfaces using the existing Frequency Synchronization configuration.
Note In dual host system, the Frequency Synchronization configuration on both the hosts
must be identical to ensure consistency if one of the hosts fail.
Synchronization Message Channel Synchronization Status Messages (ESMC SSMs) over one or more
of its fabric links, the satellite selects one of the fabric links to synchronize to, and uses this timing stream
to drive SyncE output on its access interfaces.
Note There is no configuration that controls the behavior of the satellite device and
synchronization is enabled automatically on both its fabric interfaces and access interfaces
after SyncE information is received.
• Configuring external clock source as frequency input.
• Configuring fabric interfaces as SyncE outputs, with ESMC output.
