Dell EMC SmartFabric OS10 User Guide Release 10.5.2

Example: Configure boundary clock with L2 transport method

Configure a boundary clock with two PTP interfaces using L2 transport method. The interface that is connected to the grandmaster clock or the best master clock becomes the slave device. The other interface becomes the master clock.

1. Configure the PTP boundary clock.

   The delay mechanism of the boundary clock is end-to-end by default.

   OS10(config)# ptp clock boundary

2. Enable PTP on interface 1 with L2 multicast transport mode.

   PTP role is dynamic by default.

   OS10(config)# interface ethernet 1/1/1
   OS10(conf-if-eth1/1/1)# ptp transport layer2
   OS10(conf-if-eth1/1/1)# ptp enable

3. Enable PTP on interface 2 with L2 multicast transport mode.

   PTP role is dynamic by default.

   OS10(config)# interface ethernet 1/1/2
   OS10(conf-if-eth1/1/2)# ptp transport layer2
   OS10(conf-if-eth1/1/2)# ptp enable
