Configure Hybrid Mode with a User-Defined Mapping of the PTP Clock Class to the ESMC Quality-Level

Read this topic to configure hybrid mode options with a user-defined mapping of the PTP clock class to ESMC quality level.

To configure hybrid mode options with a user-defined mapping of the PTP clock class to the ESMC quality level, perform the following steps:

  1. In configuration mode, go to the [edit protocols ptp slave] hierarchy level:
  2. To override the default mapping option, perform the following steps:

    1. Configure the clock-class-to-quality-level-mapping option with one of the quality level values. The quality level values are prc, prs, sec, smc, ssu-a, ssu-b, st2, st3, st3e, st4, stu, and tnc.

    2. Configure the clock-class option for the set quality level. The clock class value ranges from 80 through 109.

    Note:

    In hybrid mode, the boundary node advertises the grandmaster clock class value only after phase lock is achieved.

  3. Configure the hybrid mode option on the timeReceiver.
  4. For MX routers, perform the following steps:

    1. Configure the Synchronous Ethernet mapping option in hybrid mode.

    2. Configure the IP address of the clock source.

    3. Configure one or more Synchronous Ethernet source interfaces for the timeReceiver as needed.

    Note:

    You must first configure these interfaces at the [edit chassis synchronization] hierarchy level as Synchronous Ethernet sources. For information about configuring these interfaces, see synchronization (MX Series).
  5. For ACX series routers, perform the following steps:

    1. Configure the upstream unicast PTP timeTransmitter interface and IP address of the clock source.

    2. Configure one or more Synchronous Ethernet source interfaces for the timeReceiver as needed.

    Note:

    You must first configure these interfaces at the [edit chassis synchronization] hierarchy level as Synchronous Ethernet sources. For information about configuring these interfaces, see synchronization (ACX Series).
