Time Sync Configuration
In this field Values are Comments
Time Sync Enable • Checked
• Unchecked
Check to enable time synchronization on the device.
Only the ports on the base switch module are capable of
time synchronization. The switch expansion modules do
not support time synchronization. However, time
synchronization is interdependent with the Enable
Expansion Port Forwarding of Time Synchronization
setting. Expansion ports are put in Forward mode when
Time Synchronization is disabled on base ports.
Clear the checkbox to disable the time synchronization on
the device. The Enable Time Synchronization and Port
State features appear dimmed when the Enable Time
Synchronization checkbox is cleared.
Time Sync State • Initializing
• Faulty
• Disabled
• Listening
• Pre_Master
• Master
• Passive
• Uncalibrated
• Slave
• The port is initializing
• A fault is present
• The port is disabled.
• The port is in a listening state.
• The port is in the pre-master state.
• The port is the system master.
• The port is receiving data.
• The port is uncalibrated.
• The port is a slave in the system.
Enable Expansion Port
Forwarding of Time
Synchronization Data
• Checked
• Unchecked
This checkbox appears only when the switch is online.
When enabled, the expansion ports are put into Forward
mode. In Forward mode the expansion module port will
forward time synchronization messages.
If disabled the expansion module port will drop time sync
messages.
Port For example:
• Gi1/1 is Gigabit Ethernet port 1 on the base
• Fa1/1 is Fast Ethernet port 1 on the base
• Fa2/1 is Fast Ethernet port 1 on the first expansion module
• Fa3/1 is Fast Ethernet port 1 on the second expansion
module
Displays the port selected for configuration. The port
number includes the port type (Fa for Fast Ethernet and
Gi for Gigabit Ethernet), the base or expansion module
number (1, 2, or 3), and the specific port number.
Port Enable • Checked
• Unchecked
Check to enable the configuration of the port on the
device.
Clear the checkbox to disable the port configuration on
the device.
The Port Enable feature appears dimmed when the
Enable Time Synchronization checkbox is cleared.
Port State • Initializing
• Faulty
• Disabled
• Listening
• Pre-Master
• Master
• Uncalibrated
• Slave
Displays the current state of the time synchronization
port on the device. The Port State is blank and dimmed
when th
e Enable Time Synchronization checkbox is
cleared.
