Announce
Timeout
Announce interval timeout for PTP
topology discovery in number of
announce intervals.
The standard settings of announce
interval = 2 (2 per second) and
announce timeout = 3 lead to a
timeout of 3 x 2 seconds =
6 seconds.
Select the same value for all devices
within a PTP domain.

Runtime
Measuring
Mechanism
Mechanism for measuring the
message runtime.
Enter the same mechanism for the
PTP device connected to this port.
The device itself does not generate
any messages in the runtime
measurement. A connected PTP
slave measures the runtime of the
entire transmission path to the
master.
E2E (End-to-End):
The device itself measures the
runtime to all the connected PTP
devices. If a reconfiguration is
performed, this eliminates the need
to determine the runtime again.
The MICE media modules MM23
and MM33 support the P2P
mechanism.
P2P (Peer-to-Peer)
No runtime determination. Disabled
P2P Runtime
Measuring
Interval
Interval for peer-to-peer runtime
measurements at this port.
Prerequisite:
You have selected the P2P runtime
measuring mechanism on the
device itself and on the connected
PTP device.
