Caution: It is highly recommended to avoid integrating a Manual Free-Run-
ning device to a timing network in production as in some corner cases the
BMCA/FOCA algorithms might select this timing source when it is not the
expected choice.
5.2.1.8 Custom
The Custom Preset has been designed to permit modifications of any previous presets in
order to meet any kind of user needs. As shown in "Custom Preset for timing sources
configuration" below:, it is recommended to:
1.
First select a preset which is the most similar to the desired configuration.
2.
Then add/modify the different timing sources in the order they should be evaluated
by the FOCA algorithm. If the field Type is leaved empty, it will not be evaluated.
3.
Finally, each type of timing source will enable its own sub-set of parameters in order
to complete the configuration
a.
For WR type, the user should select the corresponding interface name (e.g.,
wr0)
b.
For GM type, you first need to expand (+) the Advanced Configuration to con-
figure the subset specific to a GM time source (see "VCS Code" on page141
for more details).
