PTP Options

Permitted NodesOrdinary clocks, peer-to-peer transparent clocks, boundary clocks



Prohibited Nodes




Transport MechanismsIEEE 802.3 Ethernet, as per IEEE1588-2008 Annex F (PTP directly over Ethernet).
VLAN tags (IEEE802.1Q) are mandatory, with a default priority of 4, and default VLAN ID of 0.
Other transport mechanisms are prohibited.



5.6
Multicast or UnicastFull multicast operation, using MAC addresses specified in IEEE1588-2008 Annex F:
- Uses MAC address 01-80-C2-00-00-0E for Pdelay messages
- Uses MAC address 01-1B-19-00-00-00 for other messages



5.8
BMCAUses default BMCA specified in clauses 9.3.2, 9.3.3 and 9.3.4 of IEEE1588-2008


5.4.1
Path Delay MeasurementPeer Delay mechanism


5.3
PTP ManagementManagement specified by way of a SNMP MIB
- Grandmaster support for SNMP MIB is mandatory
- SNMP support for other devices is optional
- Ordinary clocks not supporting SNMP must provide the following information: TimeInaccuracy, traceability, offset from GM, alarm if offset from GM reaches a configurable limit.



5.5
Message TypesUsed: Announce, Sync, Follow-up, Pdelay_Req, Pdelay_Resp, Pdelay_Resp_Follow_Up
Not used: Delay_Req, Delay_Resp, Signalling, Management




One-step and Two-step clockOne-step operation is recommended, although two-step operation is allowed.
All ingress ports must support both one-step and two-step clocks.
All egress ports may support either one-step or two-step clocks.



5.7.1
One-way and Two-way OperationOne-way Sync message operation due to use of peer delay messages.
Two-way operation for peer delay messages.




Clock identityThe ALTERNATE_TIME_OFFSET_INDICATOR TLV must be supported by all devices.
