Enabling Transparent Clock Mode for PTP
The PTP-TC configuration is disabled by default on all interfaces. The PTP-TC can be enabled globally. All the ports are configured for timestamping after the transparent clock is configured globally. Enable each port individually if you want to enable or disable timestamping on an individual port or range of ports.
The following task shows how PTP can be enabled on individual ports or multiple ports.
- Enter global configuration mode.
- Specify the the individual port to be enabled in PTP.
- Enable the transparent clock mode for PTP using the following command.
The following example enables the transparent clock mode for PTP on a range of
ports.
device(config-if-e25000-1/1/5)# interface ethernet 1/1/10 to 1/1/15 device(config-mif-1/1/10-1/1/15)# ptp-clock transparent pkt-type ethernet option e2e step-type onestep PTP Feature Enabled on port 1/1/10 PTP Feature Enabled on port 1/1/11 PTP Feature Enabled on port 1/1/12 PTP Feature Enabled on port 1/1/13 PTP Feature Enabled on port 1/1/14 PTP Feature Enabled on port 1/1/15
The following example enables the PTP transparent clock mode globally.
device# configure terminal
device(config)# ptp-clock transparent pkt-type ethernet option e2e step-type onestep

device(config)# show ptp-clock
