Libraries Suite > Utilities > Interactive LXI.
2. Open the Timing menu.
Click on the tab labeled Timing.
3. Choose an active domain.
From the Active Domain pull down menu select the PTP domain entered in step 3.
4. Update the clocks.
Click Update Clock List.
5. Check that the MXA and MXG are located in the expected domain.
Click on the Clock Names listed in the Clock List, then examine the Clock Information panel for the
IP Addresses of the MXA and MXG.
