Firewalls that support PTP

[Khade Purcell]

I am looking for a firewall appliance that supports PTP(precision time protocol) as a server and/or client. What are my options outside of the Industrial security appliance(3000)? Do any of the ASAs support PTP? Is a license required?

Hi

Except industrial devices, you don't have a lot of choices. Asa support ptp meaning it'll act as transparent but won't synchronize is time with ptp nor it'll be able to do server. Ptp support on asa comes with some limitations/requirements.

Thank you Francesco,

Do you have a link to documentation on the mentioned limitations/requirements?
