    Sets the external time reference of the device to 802.1AS clock.

    If the device is not a 802.1AS slave and you set the time reference to 802.1AS, the board time enters Free Running mode. Calling this function does not explicitly start the 802.1AS protocol. You must invoke Start 802.1AS after setting the time reference for the device to participate in 802.1AS.
