Configuring Precision Time Protocol

Precision Time Protocol (PTP) is a protocol that defines a method to distribute time around a network. PTP support is based on the IEEE 1588-2008 standard. This module describes the concepts around this protocol and details the various configurations involved.

This module contains the following topics:

PTP Overview

The Precision Time Protocol (PTP), as defined in the IEEE 1588 standard, synchronizes with nanosecond accuracy the real-time clocks of the devices in a network. The clocks are organized into a master-slave hierarchy. PTP identifies the port that is connected to a device with the most precise clock. This clock is referred to as the master clock. All the other devices on the network synchronize their clocks with the master and are referred to as members. Constantly exchanged timing messages ensure continued synchronization. PTP ensures that the best available clock is selected as the source of time (the grandmaster clock) for the network and that other clocks in the network are synchronized to the grandmaster.

Table 1. PTP Clocks

Network Element

Description

Grandmaster (GM)

A network device physically attached to the primary time source. All clocks are synchronized to the grandmaster clock.

Ordinary Clock (OC)

An ordinary clock is a 1588 clock with a single PTP port that can operate in one of the following modes:

  • Master mode—Distributes timing information over the network to one or more slave clocks, thus allowing the slave to synchronize its clock to the master.

  • Slave mode—Synchronizes its clock to a master clock. You can enable the slave mode on up to two interfaces simultaneously in order to connect to two different master clocks.

Boundary Clock (BC)

The device participates in selecting the best master clock and can act as the master clock if no better clocks are detected.

Boundary clock starts its own PTP session with a number of downstream slaves. The boundary clock mitigates the number of network hops and packet delay variations in the packet network between the Grand Master and Slave.

Transparent Clock (TC)

A transparent clock is a device or a switch that calculates the time it requires to forward traffic and updates the PTP time correction field to account for the delay, making the device transparent in terms of time calculations.

PTP consists of two parts:

  • The port State machine and Best Master Clock Algorithm: This provides a method to determine state of the ports in the network that will remain passive (neither master nor slave), run as a master (providing time to other clocks in the network), or run as slaves (receiving time from other clocks in the network).

  • Delay-Request/Response mechanism and a Peer-delay mechanism: This provides a mechanisms for slave ports to calculate the difference between the time of their own clocks and the time of their master clock.


Note

Transparent Clock (TC) is not supported.

Frequency and Time Selection

The selection of the source to synchronize the device clock frequency is made by frequency synchronization, and is outside of the scope of PTP. The Announce, Sync, and Delay-request frequencies must be the same on the master and slave.

Delay-Response Mechanism

The Delay Request-response mechanism (defined in section 11.3 of IEEE Std 1588-2008) lets a slave port estimate the difference between its own clock-time and the clock-time of its master. The following options are supported:

  • One-step mechanism - The timestamp for a Sync message is sent in the Sync message itself.

  • Two-step mechanism - The timestamp for a Sync message is sent later in a Follow-up message.

When running a port in Slave state, a router can send Delay-request messages and handle incoming Sync, Follow-up, and Delay-response messages. The timeout periods for both Sync and Delay-response messages are individually configurable.

Hybrid Mode

Your router allows the ability to select separate sources for frequency and time-of-day (ToD). Frequency selection can be between any source of frequency available to the router, such as: BITS, GPS, SyncE or IEEE 1588 PTP. The ToD selection is between the source selected for frequency and PTP, if available (ToD selection is from GPS, or PTP). This is known as hybrid mode, where a physical frequency source (BITS or SyncE) is used to provide frequency synchronization, while PTP is used to provide ToD synchronization.

Frequency selection uses the algorithm described in ITU-T recommendation G.781. The ToD selection is controlled using the time-of-day priority configuration. This configuration is found under the clock interface frequency synchronization configuration mode and under the global PTP configuration mode. It controls the order for which sources are selected for ToD. Values in the range of 1 to 254 are allowed, with lower numbers indicating higher priority.

The steps involved in configuring PTP hybrid mode is described in a subsequent section in this chapter.

Time of Day (ToD) Support

The router receives GPS ToD messages in serial ASCII stream through the RS422 interface in any of the following formats:

  • NTP Type 4

  • Cisco

  • NMEA - GPZDA


Note

You can refer to the below support information in context of the current release and see relevant Release Notes for more information on supported features and hardware.

Port States

State machine indicates the behavior of each port. The possible states are:

State

Description

INIT

Port is not ready to participate in PTP.

LISTENING

First state when a port becomes ready to participate in PTP: In this state, the port listens to PTP masters for a (configurable) period of time.

PRE-MASTER

Port is ready to enter the MASTER state.

MASTER

Port provides timestamps for any Slave or boundary clocks that are listening.

UNCALIBRATED

Port receives timestamps from a Master clock but, the router’s clock is not yet synchronized to the Master.

SLAVE

Port receives timestamps from a Master clock and the router’s clock is synchronized to the Master.

PASSIVE

Port is aware of a better clock than the one it would advertise if it was in MASTER state and is not a Slave clock to that Master clock.

Restrictions for PTP

The following PTP restrictions apply to the Cisco NCS 5500 Series Router:

  • NCS55-RP does not support PTP

  • NC55-18H18F line card does not support PTP

  • SyncE is not supported on a 1GE copper SFP.

  • SyncE is not supported on 25 GE or 100 GE interfaces when they are used in 1G mode.

  • Sync2 interface is supported only if 10 MHz, 1 Pulse per Second (PPS) and time-of-day (ToD) ports are configured.

  • PTP is not supported with MACSec.

  • G.8273.2 Class-A performance is met if CFP2-DCO is configured on either Slave or Master port on the node.

  • Transparent Clock is not supported.

  • PTP over MPLS is not supported.


Note

  • We recommend you to configure, and enable Frequency Synchronization selection input on two interfaces per line card.

  • For link aggregation, you must configure and enable Frequency Synchronization selection input on a single bundle member.

ITU-T Telecom Profiles for PTP

Cisco IOS XR software supports ITU-T Telecom Profiles for PTP as defined in the ITU-T recommendations. A profile is a specific selection of PTP configuration options that are selected to meet the requirements of a particular application.

PTP lets you define separate profiles to adapt itself for use in different scenarios. A telecom profile differs in several ways from the default behavior defined in the IEEE 1588-2008 standard and the key differences are mentioned in the subsequent sections.

The following sections describe the ITU-T Telecom Profiles that are supported for PTP.

G.8265.1

G.8265.1 profile fulfills specific frequency-distribution requirements in telecom networks. Features of G.8265.1 profile are:

  • Clock advertisement: G.8265.1 profile specifies changes to values used in Announce messages for advertising PTP clocks. The clock class value is used to advertise the quality level of the clock, while the other values are not used.

  • Clock Selection: G.8265.1 profile also defines an alternate Best Master Clock Algorithm (BMCA) to select port states and clocks is defined for the profile. This profile also requires to receive Sync messages (and optionally, Delay-Response messages) to qualify a clock for selection.

  • Port State Decision: The ports are statically configured to be Master or Slave instead of using state machines to dynamically set port states.

  • Packet Rates: The packet rates higher than rates specified in the IEEE 1588-2008 standard are used. They are:

    • Sync/Follow-Up Packets: Rates from 128 packets-per-second to 16 seconds-per-packet.

    • Delay-Request/Delay-Response Packets: Rates from 128 packets-per-second to 16 seconds-per-packet.

    • Announce Packets: Rates from 8 packets-per-second to 64 packets-per-second.

  • Transport Mechanism: G.8265.1 profile only supports IPv4 PTP transport mechanism.

  • Mode: G.8265.1 profile supports transport of data packets only in unicast mode.

  • Clock Type: G.8265.1 profile only supports Ordinary Clock-type (a clock with only one PTP port).

  • Domain Numbers: The domain numbers that can be used in a G.8265.1 profile network ranges from 4 to 23. The default domain number is 4.

  • Port Numbers: All PTP port numbers can only be one (1) because all clocks in this profile network are Ordinary Clocks.

G.8265.1 profile defines an alternate algorithm to select between different master clocks based on the local priority given to each master clock and their quality levels (QL). This profile also defines Packet Timing Signal Fail (PTSF) conditions to identify the master clocks that do not qualify for selection. They are:

  • PTSF-lossSync condition: Raised for master clocks that do not receive a reliable stream of Sync and Delay-Resp messages. Cisco IOS XR software requests Sync and Delay-Resp grants for each configured master clock to track the master clock with this condition.

  • PTSF-lossAnnounce condition: Raised for master clocks that do not receive a reliable stream of Announce messages.

  • PTSF-unusable condition: Raised for master clocks that receives a reliable stream of Announce, Sync, and Delay-Resp messages, but not usable by slave clocks. Cisco IOS XR software does not use this condition.

G.8275.1

G.8275.1 profile fulfills the time-of-day and phase synchronization requirements in telecom networks with all network devices participating in the PTP protocol. G.8275.1 profile provides better frequency stability for the time-of-day and phase synchronization.

Features of G.8275.1 profile are:

  • Synchronization Model: G.8275.1 profile adopts hop-by-hop synchronization model. Each network device in the path from master to slave synchronizes its local clock to upstream devices and provides synchronization to downstream devices.

  • Clock Selection: G.8275.1 profile also defines an alternate BMCA that selects a clock for synchronization and port state for the local ports of all devices in the network is defined for the profile. The parameters defined as a part of the BMCA are:

    • Clock Class

    • Clock Accuracy

    • Offset Scaled Log Variance

    • Priority 2

    • Clock Identity

    • Steps Removed

    • Port Identity

    • notSlave flag

    • Local Priority

  • Port State Decision: The port states are selected based on the alternate BMCA algorithm. A port is configured to a master-only port state to enforce the port to be a master for multicast transport mode.

  • Packet Rates: The nominal packet rate for Announce packets is 8 packets-per-second and 16 packets-per-second for Sync/Follow-Up and Delay-Request/Delay-Response packets.

  • Transport Mechanism: G.8275.1 profile only supports Ethernet PTP transport mechanism.

  • Mode: G.8275.1 profile supports transport of data packets only in multicast mode. The forwarding is done based on forwardable or non-forwardable multicast MAC address.

  • Clock Type: G.8275.1 profile supports the following clock types:

    • Telecom Grandmaster (T-GM): Provides timing for other network devices and does not synchronize its local clock to other network devices.

    • Telecom Time Slave Clock (T-TSC): A slave clock synchronizes its local clock to another PTP clock, but does not provide PTP synchronization to any other network devices.

    • Telecom Boundary Clock (T-BC): Synchronizes its local clock to a T-GM or an upstream T-BC clock and provides timing information to downstream T-BC or T-TSC clocks.

  • Domain Numbers: The domain numbers that can be used in a G.8275.1 profile network ranges from 24 to 43. The default domain number is 24.

The G.8275.1 supports the following:

  • T-GM: The telecom grandmaster (T-GM) provides timing to all other devices on the network. It does not synchronize its local clock with any other network element other than the Primary Reference Time Clock (PRTC).

  • T-BC: The telecom boundary clock (T-BC) synchronizes its local clock to a T-GM or an upstream T-BC, and provides timing information to downstream T-BCs or T-TSCs. If at a given point in time there are no higher-quality clocks available to a T-BC to synchronize to, it may act as a grandmaster.

  • T-TSC: The telecom time slave clock (T-TSC) synchronizes its local clock to another PTP clock (in most cases, the T-BC), and does not provide synchronization through PTP to any other device.

The following figure describes a sample G.8275.1 topology.

Figure 1. A Sample G.8275.1 Topology

G.8275.2

The G.8275.2 is a PTP profile for use in telecom networks where phase or time-of-day synchronization is required. It differs from G.8275.1 in that it is not required that each device in the network participates in the PTP protocol. Also, G.8275.2 uses PTP over IPv4 in unicast mode.

The G.8275.2 profile is based on the partial timing support from the network. Hence nodes using G.8275.2 are not required to be directly connected.

The G.8275.2 profile is used in mobile cellular systems that require accurate synchronization of time and phase. For example, the fifth generation (5G) of mobile telecommunications technology.


Note

G.8275.2 profile is supported on Cisco NCS 5500 Series Routers. However, the performance standards of this profile is not aligned with any of the ITU-T standards because performance specifications for G.8275.2 profile has not yet been made available by ITU-T.

For more information on hardware that supports G.8275.2 profile configurations, refer to Supported Hardware section in this chapter.

Features of G.8275.2 profile are:

  • Clock Selection: G.8275.2 profile also defines an alternate BMCA that selects a clock for synchronization and port state for the local ports of all devices in the network is defined for the profile. The parameters defined as a part of the BMCA are:

    • Clock Class

    • Clock Accuracy

    • Offset Scaled Log Variance

    • Priority 2

    • Clock Identity

    • Steps Removed

    • Port Identity

    • notSlave flag

    • Local Priority


    Note

    See ITU-T G.8275.2 document to determine the valid values for Clock Class parameter.

  • Port State Decision: The port states are selected based on the alternate BMCA algorithm. A port is configured to a master-only port state to enforce the port to be a master for unicast transport mode.

  • Packet Rates:

    • Synchronization/Follow-Up—minimum is one packet-per-second and maximum of 128 packets-per-second.

    • Packet rate for Announce packets—minimum of one packet-per-second and maximum of eight packets-per-second.

    • Delay-Request/Delay-Response packets—minimum is one packet-per-second and maximum of 128 packets-per-second

  • Transport Mechanism: G.8275.2 profile supports only IPv4 PTP transport mechanism.

  • Mode: G.8275.2 profile supports transport of data packets only in unicast mode.

  • Clock Type: G.8275.2 profile supports the following clock types:

    • Telecom Grandmaster (T-GM): Provides timing for other network devices and does not synchronize its local clock to other network devices.

    • Telecom Time Slave Clock (T-TSC): A slave clock synchronizes its local clock to another PTP clock, but does not provide PTP synchronization to any other network devices.

    • Telecom Boundary Clock (T-BC): Synchronizes its local clock to a T-GM or an upstream T-BC clock and provides timing information to downstream T-BC or T-TSC clocks.

  • Domain Numbers: The domain numbers that can be used in a G.8275.2 profile network ranges from 44 to 63. The default domain number is 44.

Configuring PTP

Precision Time Protocol (PTP) is a protocol that defines a method to distribute time around a network. PTP support is based on the IEEE 1588-2008 standard.

This module describes the tasks you need to configure PTP on Cisco IOS XR software.


Note
When a subinterface is configured with encapsulation default or untag configuration, you must configure PTP on that subinterface, instead of the main interface.

Configuring Global G.8275.1 Profile

This below configuration describes the steps involved to create a global configuration profile for a PTP interface that can then be assigned to any interface as required. It uses G.8275.1 profile as an example:


Note

Prior to Cisco IOS XR Software Release 6.3.3, the default PTP timers for G2875.1 were not set to standard values. This could lead to interoperability issues with other routers running the timers with updated values. Hence, to prevent such issues arising due to difference in packet rates, you must explicitly configure the announce interval value to 8, sync frequency value to 16 and delay-request frequency value to 16 while configuring global g.2875.1 profile.

Configuring PTP Hybrid Mode

This procedure describes the steps involved to configure router in a hybrid mode. You configure hybrid mode by selecting PTP for phase and time-of-day (ToD) and another source for the frequency.


Note

  • G.8275.1 PTP profile supports only the hybrid mode. By default, the hybrid mode is used, regardless of the physical-layer-frequency configuration.

  • G.8275.2 PTP profile supports both hybrid mode and non-hybrid mode. By default, the non-hybrid mode is used. Hybrid mode is used only when the physical-layer-frequency is configured.

To configure PTP Hybrid mode:

  1. Configure Global Frequency Synchronization

    RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config)# frequency synchronization
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config)# commit

  2. Configure Frequency Synchronization for an Interface. The time-of-day-priority setting specifies that SyncE to be used as a ToD source if there is no source available with a lower priority. 

    RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config)# interface GigabitEthernet 0/0/0/0
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-if)# frequency synchronization
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-if-freqsync)# selection input
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-if-freqsync)# time-of-day-priority 100
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-if-freqsync)# commit

  3. Configure Global PTP. To configure PTP as source for ToD, use ToD priority values in the range from 1 (highest priority) to 254 (lowest priority). Use frequency from the physical layer. 

    RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config)# ptp
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-ptp)# physical-layer-frequency
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-ptp)# time-of-day priority 1
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config)# commit

  4. Configure PTP Interface. To enable this interface as a PTP Master, use master command in ptp-interface configuration mode. 

    RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config)# interface GigabitEthernet 0/0/0/2 
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-if)# ipv4 address 10.0.0.1/24
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-if)# ptp
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-if-ptp)# master ipv4 10.0.0.2 
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-if-ptp)# commit

Configuring PTP Telecom Profile Interface

This procedure describes the steps involved to create an interface for PTP ITU-T Telecom Profiles.


Note

  • It is also possible to make these definitions within a global PTP profile and attach them to the interface using the profile command in PTP interface configuration mode.

  1. To configure an interface, use interface type interface-path-id command in the configuration mode. 

    
 RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config)# interface gigabitethernet 0/1/0/1

  2. To enter the PTP configuration mode for the given interface, use ptp command in the interface configuration mode. 

    
 RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-if)# ptp

  3. To configure a PTP profile (or specify a previously defined profile), use profile name command in the ptp-interface configuration mode.


    Note
    Any additional commands entered in ptp-interface configuration mode overrides the global profile settings. 
    
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-if-ptp)# profile slave

  4. To configure frequency for Sync or Delay-request messages for the given ptp interface, use sync frequency rate command or delay-request frequency rate command appropriately in the ptp-interface configuration mode. The valid configurable values are 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64 or 128. 

    
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-if-ptp)# sync frequency 128
    
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-if-ptp)# delay-request frequency 128

  5. To configure duration for different PTP messages, use one of the following commands in the ptp-interface configuration mode: announce grant-duration duration , sync grant-duration duration , or delay-response grant-duration duration . The duration value can be between 60 and 1000 seconds.


    Note
    This duration value represents the length of grant that is requested by a port in Slave state and represents the maximum grant-duration allowed when the port is in Master state. 
    
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-if-ptp)# announce grant-duration 120
    
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-if-ptp)# sync grant-duration 120
    
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-if-ptp)# delay-response grant-duration 120

  6. To configure a timeout value, length of time by when a PTP message must be received (before PTSF-lossSync is raised), use one of the following commands in the ptp-interface configuration mode: sync timeout timeout or delay-response timeout timeout . The timeout value can be between 100 to 10000 micro seconds. 

    
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-if-ptp)# sync timeout 120
    
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-if-ptp)# delay-response timeout 120

  7. To configure a response for unicast-grant invalid-request, use unicast-grant invalid-request {reduce | deny} command. The response for requests with unacceptable parameters would either be denied or granted with reduced parameters. 

    RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-if-ptp)# unicast-grant 
invalid-request reduce

  8. To configure IPv4 address for a PTP master, use master ipv4 ip-address command in the ptp-interface configuration mode. 

    RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-if-ptp)# master ipv4 1.7.1.2

  9. To override the clock-class received in Announce messages from the specified Master, use clock-class class command in the ptp-master-interface configuration mode. The class values can range from 0 to 255. 

    RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-if-ptp-master)# clock-class 2

Verification

To display the PTP interface details, use show ptp interfaces brief command.

Configuring PTP Telecom Profile Clock

This procedure describes the steps involved to configure PTP clock and its settings to be consistent with ITU-T Telecom Profiles for Frequency.

  1. To enter the PTP configuration mode, use ptp command in the configuration mode. 

    
 RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config)# ptp

  2. To enter the PTP-clock configuration mode, use clock command in the ptp-configuration mode. 

    
 RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-ptp)# clock

  3. To configure the domain-number for a PTP profile, use domain number command in the ptp-configuration mode. The allowed domain number range for G.8265.1 profile is between 4 and 23 and the range for G.8275.1 profile is between 24 and 43. 

    
 RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-ptp)# domain 24

  4. To exit the ptp-clock configuration mode, use exit command. 

    
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-ptp-clock)# exit

  5. To configure the desired telecom profile and the clock type for the profile, use clock profile {g.8275.1 | g.8275.2} clock-type {T-GM | T-BC | T-TSC} command in the ptp configuration mode. For g.8265.1 clock profile, clock type is either master or slave.


    Note
    The clock-selection telecom-profile and clock-advertisement telecom-profile commands are deprecated from Release 6.1.2. They are replaced by the clock profile command. 
    
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-ptp)# clock profile g.8275.1 clock-type T-GM

Verification

To display the configured PTP clock profile details, use show run ptp command.

Configure E-SyncE on Primary and Secondary Interface

Primary Interface

The following example shows how you can configure global synce on primary interface:

Router#configure terminal 
Router(config)#frequency synchronization 
Router(config-freqsync)#quality itu-t option 1
Router(config-freqsync)#clock-identity mac-address aaaa.bbbb.cccc
Router(config-freqsync)#clock-interface timing-mode system 
Router(config-freqsync)#commit

The following example shows how you can configure synce on primary interface:

Router#configure terminal 
Router(config)# interface HundredGigE0/0/0/11
Router(config-if)# frequency synchronization
Router(config-if)# quality transmit exact itu-t option 1 ePRTC
Router(config-if)# commit

Secondary Interface

The following example shows how you can configure global synce on secondary interface:

Router#configure terminal 
Router(config)#frequency synchronization 
Router(config-freqsync)#quality itu-t option 1
Router(config-freqsync)#clock-interface timing-mode system 
Router(config-freqsync)#commit

The following example shows how you can configure synce on secondary interface:

Router#configure terminal
Router(config)# interface HundredGigE0/0/0/10
Router(config-if)# frequency synchronization
Router(config-if-freqsync)# selection input
Router(config-if-freqsync)# priority 10
Router(config-if-freqsync)# wait-to-restore 0
Router(config-if-freqsync)# commit

Note

If timing mode system is not configured, the major alarm T4 PLL is in FREERUN mode is raised. This alarm has no functional impact to the system behavior.

Verification

Use the show frequency synchronization command if e-synce is configured.
