PTP Options | |||||
| Permitted Nodes | Ordinary clocks, peer-to-peer transparent clocks, boundary clocks | ||||
| Prohibited Nodes | |||||
| Transport Mechanisms | IEEE 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 Unicast | Full 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 | |||
| BMCA | Uses default BMCA specified in clauses 9.3.2, 9.3.3 and 9.3.4 of IEEE1588-2008 | 5.4.1 | |||
| Path Delay Measurement | Peer Delay mechanism | 5.3 | |||
| PTP Management | Management 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 Types | Used: 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 clock | One-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 Operation | One-way Sync message operation due to use of peer delay messages. Two-way operation for peer delay messages. | ||||
| Clock identity | The ALTERNATE_TIME_OFFSET_INDICATOR TLV must be supported by all devices. | 5.11 | |||
| Security | Annex K security not used. Other security measures not mentioned. | 5.10 | |||
| Unicast negotiation (IEEE1588-2008 clause 16.1) | Not used. | 5.10 | |||
| Path trace (IEEE1588-2008 clause 16.2) | Not used. | 5.10 | |||
| Alternate timescales (IEEE1588-2008 clause 16.3) | The ALTERNATE_TIME_OFFSET_INDICATOR TLV must be supported by all devices. | 5.12.1 | |||
| Grandmaster clusters (IEEE1588-2008 clause 17.3) | Not used. | 5.10 | |||
| Alternate masters (IEEE1588-2008 clause 17.4) | Not used. | 5.10 | |||
| Unicast discovery (IEEE1588-2008 clause 17.5) | Not used. | 5.10 | |||
| Acceptable master table (IEEE1588-2008 clause 17.6) | Not used. | 5.10 | |||
| Cumulative frequency scale factor offset (IEEE1588-2008 Annex L) | Not used. | 5.10 | |||
