6.10.1.2.7 GNSS
For a 7705 SAR chassis that is equipped with a GNSS receiver and an attached 
GNSS antenna, the GNSS receiver can be used as a synchronous timing source. 
GNSS data is used to provide network-independent frequency and ToD 
synchronization.
The gnss command specifies a GNSS receiver port as a synchronous timing source. 
The specific GNSS receiver port is identified by port-id and has an assigned priority-
value (from 1 to 16).
CLI Syntax: config>system>time
gnss
port port-id time-ref-priority priority-value
Example: config>system>time# gnss
config>system>time>gnss# port 1/2/1 time-ref-priority 1
6.10.1.2.8 CRON
The cron command supports the Service Assurance Agent (SAA) functions as well 
as the ability to schedule turning on and off policies to meet “Time of Day” 
requirements. CRON functionality includes the ability to specify the commands that 
need to be run, when they will be scheduled, including one-time only functionality 
(oneshot), interval and calendar functions, as well as where to store the output of the 
results. In addition, CRON can specify the relationship between input, output, and 
schedule. Scheduled reboots, peer turn ups, service assurance agent tests and 
more can all be scheduled with CRON, as well as OAM events, such as connectivity 
checks or troubleshooting runs. 
CRON elements include:
• Action
• Schedule
• Script
