This value also defines the interval between executions of the BMCA within the node. In order
to minimize BMCA-driven reconfigurations, the IEEE Std 1588-2008 recommends that the
announce interval be consistent across the entire IEEE 1588 network.
The announce message interval cannot be changed unless PTP is shut down.
The log-anno-interval is calculated using the binary logarithm of the value of the interval in
seconds before message reception. For example, for an announce message interval of 8
packets/s (one packet every 0.125 seconds), set this field to log(base2) (0.125) = –3.
The no form of this command returns the configuration to the default value. The default value
varies depending on the configuration of the profile command.
Default 1 (1 packet every 2 s) when the profile is configured as ieee1588-2008
1 (1 packet every 2 s) when the profile is configured as itu-telecom-freq for a clock-id of 1 to
16 (profile itu-telecom-freq does not apply when the clock-id is csm)
–3 (8 packets/s) when the profile is configured as g8275dot1-2014
Parameters log-anno-interval — specifies the expected interval between the reception of announce
messages. This parameter is specified as the logarithm to the base 2, in seconds.
Values –3 to 4, where –3 = 0.125 s, –2 = 0.25 s, –1 = 0.5 s, 0 = 1 s, 1 = 2 s,
2 = 4 s, 3 = 8 s, and 4 = 16 s when the clock-id is 1 to 16 (all profiles)
or when the clock-id is csm and the profile is configured as
ieee1588-2008 or g8275dot1-2014 (profile itu-telecom-freq does
not apply when the clock-id is csm)

Description This command configures whether to use SDH or SONET values for encoding synchronous
status messages. This command only applies to synchronous Ethernet ports and is not
configurable on SONET/SDH ports.
This command is only available when the clock-id parameter is defined as csm.
Default sdh
Parameters sdh — specifies the values used are as defined in ITU-T G.781 Option 1
sonet — specifies the values used are as defined in ITU-T G.781 Option 2
