ptp transport

Configures the PTP transport method for an interface.

Syntax
ptp transport {ipv4 {multicast | unicast {master [negotiation-enable] | slave [negotiation-enable]}} | ipv6 {multicast | unicast {master [negotiation-enable] | slave [negotiation-enable]}} | layer2 [address {forwardable | non-forwardable}]
Parameters
  • ipv4 multicast—Enables IPv4 multicast as the transport method.
  • ipv4 unicast master—Enables IPv4 unicast master mode.
  • ipv4 unicast master negotiation-enable—Enables unicast negotiation (signaling support) on master to grant unicast transmission requests from slave.
  • ipv4 unicast slave—Enables IPv4 unicast slave mode.
  • ipv4 unicast slave negotiation-enable—Enables unicast negotiation (signaling support) on slave to request for unicast transmission to master.
  • ipv6 multicast—Enables IPv6 multicast as the transport method.
  • ipv6 unicast master—Enables IPv6 unicast master mode.
  • ipv6 unicast master negotiation-enable—Enables unicast negotiation (signaling support) on master to grant unicast transmission requests from slave.
  • ipv6 unicast slave—Enables IPv6 unicast slave mode.
  • ipv6 unicast slave negotiation-enable—Enables unicast negotiation (signaling support) on slave to request for unicast transmission to master.
  • layer2—Enables Layer2 protocol (untagged or 802.1Q tagged Ethernet packet) as the transport method.
  • layer2 address forwardable—Enables the forwardable destination address (01:1B:19:00:00:00) for the layer2 transport method.
  • layer2 address non-forwardable—Enables the non-forwardable destination address (01:80:C2:00:00:0E) for the layer2 transport method.
Defaults
  • None for the transport method.
  • Unicast negotiation is disabled for the unicast transport method.
  • Forwardable destination address is enabled for the Layer 2 transport method.

Usage Information
  • For unicast transport, you must configure an IP address in INTERFACE mode or a source IP address (in UNICAST IP CONFIGURATION mode) to represent the interface.
    NOTE: If you are configuring PTP on an OS10 switch that functions as a virtual router, configure the local IP address as the source IP address for unicast transport mode. Do not configure the virtual IP address as the source IP address.
    • If you enable the unicast master mode, it leads to a sub mode where you can configure the slave IP addresses.
    • If you enable the unicast slave mode, it leads to a sub mode where you can configure the master IP addresses.
    • If the unicast transport mode configuration conflicts with role configuration, the system returns an error.
  • For multicast transport, you must configure an IP address in INTERFACE mode or a source IP address (in GLOBAL CONFIGURATION mode) to represent the interface.
  • You can configure Layer2 transport method when the interface is in L2 or L3 mode. The layer 2 address options are applicable only for the ITU G.8275.1 profile.

The no form of this command removes the configuration.

Example
OS10(config)# interface ethernet 1/1/1
OS10(conf-if-eth1/1/1)# ptp transport ipv4 unicast master
