Interface:Ethernet:Time Sync:Port:Sync Status
- Updated2025-10-07
- 2 minute(s) read
This property provides the current synchronization status of the time sync protocol. It is a ring as described in the following table: Synced: The time sync protocol’s clock is successfully synchronized with other clocks in the network. This value is returned when the time synchronization protocol's Synced property is true. EnetLinkDown: The interface can not transmit or receive frames (packets). ProtocolDisabled: The time sync protocol is disabled. MeasuringPropDelay: The port is exchanging messages to measure Propagation Delay, but the port is not sending time (Master) or receiving time (Slave). MasterPendingAnnounce: The Port State is Master with the BMCA enabled and is waiting until at least two Announce Intervals have elapsed before declaring the port synchronized. This avoids reporting a false-positive when the BMCA has not finished electing the best master. WaitingForMaster: The Port State is Slave and a Sync message has not been received from the master. SyncingToMaster: The Port State is Slave and XNET's clock adjustment algorithm (servo) has not reached its final state (calibrated). A sufficient number of messages need to be exchanged such that synchronization quality (e.g. Offset From Master) is unlikely to improve significantly, but no fixed metric is applied as a threshold. PeerNotProtoCapable: The time sync protocol is not detecting a neighbor that is running the protocol according to the requirements in the standard. PropDelayExceedsTreshold: For IEEE Std 802.1AS, the measured propagation delay exceeds the value specified by the property Propagation Delay Threshold. As a result, the time sync protocol sets the property AS Capable false. SyncReceiptTimeout: The Port State is Slave and the time sync protocol has not received a Sync message from the Master in at least the number of Sync intervals specified by the property Sync Receipt Timeout. FrequencyOutOfRange: The Port State is Slave and the grandmaster’s clock has exceeded the frequency range of XNET's clock (+/- 100 ppm). SyncIntervalOutOfRange: The Port State is Slave and the master is sending Sync messages outside of the supported Sync interval range. MultipleMastersDetected: The Port State is configured as Master with the BMCA disabled and another master has been detected by the time sync protocol.
