1. From the Home panel, go to RESULTS,
The test port results panel is displayed.
2. Select Port A to enter in the port specific results.
3. Enter in PTP to display results about the PTP protocol.
4. Go to Clock status.
5. Press Run to start a new test and check the values of PTP Time, Timescale, UTC
offset and Frequency offset and Phase offset.
9.2.6. Unicast Negotiation Results
If the equipment has been configured to use the unicast addressing model (See section
9.2.1), users are allowed to see the active signalling leases that enables the endpoint
to transmit and receive miscellaneous PTP messages. To verify the unicast PTP leases
follow these steps:
1. From the Home panel, go to RESULTS,
The test port results panel is displayed.
2. Select Port A to enter in the port specific results.
3. Enter in PTP to display results about the PTP protocol.
4. Go to Unicast negotiation.
5. Select either Outgoing leases to see the message exchange leases initiated by
the device or Incoming leases to see the leases initiated by the peer.
6. Check the Clock id. Port, Address and Status fields corresponding each PTP peer.
7. Scroll up or down to one of the table rows and select to display details about a par-
ticular unicast peer.
8. Check the Message type, Interval and Status for each row in the table
Phase offset Phase offset between the currently selected IEEE 1588 mas-
ter and xGenius. If the equipment is working in slave emula-
tion mode, it tracks the phase recovered from the master
(and compensates for transmission latency using either the
Delay request-response or the Peer delay mechanisms).
The phase offset should be close to zero under ideal or
nearly ideal transmission conditions.
In pseudo-slave emulation mode (Test mode), the phase off-
set shows the phase difference between the reference and
the PTP signal. If the reference does not contain time infor-
mation, the phase information is greyed out.
