Hi,
Is there anyone has configured PTP on IE-3000 switches? I have some problems with the configuration and operation. Below is the summary of what I've done and the porblems.
There are two IE-3000 switches with ip services 15.0 (2) SE4 IOS. One has configured in the boundary mode to become master clock and the other one has left in the e2etransparent mode. There are two inter-connection links (via Cat6 ethernet cable) on Gi1/1 and Gi1/2 interfaces on both switches. All inter-connect ports are up and running. Both switches have same IOS, same hardware almost identical except IP configuration etc. Main problem is SW2 is not able to sync with SW1 as master clock (this is my understanding), and also it seems PTP on SW1 has wrong reading of local clock time. But in fact I have NTP server in the network and NTP is syncd. I've included some of the configuration and output here, if someone has experience in configuring and running PTP I would be thankful to give me some help here.
Regards,
Tohid
