According to the actual networking situation, the network planning personnel need to divide the entire network into different clock subnets in planning the clock network. Within each subnet, time synchronization can be implemented for all clocks, to meet customer requirements. In this user interface, you can set the clock subnet to ensure that the clocks in the same clock subnet are synchronized according to the network planning.
The calculation of PTP clock source is based on the clock subnet. Each clock subnet calculates its own current clock source separately. For an NE, only a time domain is supported at a time. According to the actual networking situation, the network planning personnel need to divide the entire network into different clock subnets in planning the clock network. Within each subnet, time synchronization can be implemented for all clocks, to meet the requirement of customers. Each BC or OC equipment can only be configured with a clock subnet. The clock source should be selected in the same clock subnet. The packets sent from different clock subnets are discarded by the NE.
In the NE Explorer, select an NE and then choose from the Function Tree. Click the PTP Clock Subnet tab.
