26-37 Cisco Prime Network 4.3.2 User Guide Chapter 26 Managing Mobile Transport Over Pseudowire (MToP) Networks Network Clock Service Overview To monitor PTP service: Step 1In the Vision client, right-click the required device, then choose Inventory. Step 2In the Inventory window, choose Logical Inventory > Clock > PTP Service. The PTP service properties are displayed in the content pane as shown in Figure 26-20. Figure 26-20 PTP Service Properties Table 26-19 describes the properties that are displayed for PTP service.
26-38 Cisco Prime Network 4.3.2 User Guide Chapter 26 Managing Mobile Transport Over Pseudowire (MToP) Networks Network Clock Service Overview Table 26-19 PTP Service Properties Field Description PTP Mode Mode of PTP operation: Boundary—Boundary clock mode. E2E Transparent—End-to-end transparent clock mode. Ordinary—Ordinary clock mode. P2P Transparent—Peer-to-peer transparent clock mode. Unknown—The clock mode is unknown. NoteCisco MWR-2941 routers support Ordinary mode only. PTP Clock ID Clock identifier derived from the device interface. PTP Domain Number of the domain used for PTP traffic. A single network can contain multiple separate domains. Priority 1 First value checked for clock selection. The clock with the lowest priority takes precedence. Priority 2 If two or more clocks have the same value in the Priority 1 field, the value in this field is used for clock selection. Port State Clock state according to the PTP engine: Freerun—The slave clock is not locked to a master clock. Holdover—The slave device is locked to a master device, but communication with the master is lost or the timestamps in the PTP packet are incorrect. Acquiring—The slave device is receiving packets from a master and is trying to acquire a clock. Freq locked—The slave device is locked to the master device with respect to frequency, but is not aligned with respect to phase. Phase aligned—The slave device is locked to the master device with respect to both frequency and phase. PTP clock status syslog support—As part of the syslog support, Prime Network started supporting PTP clock status syslog besides the PTP inventory information. While receiving the syslog, Prime Network queries the device, and receives the PTP state information and updates in the respective PTP service. The service alarm supported for the PTP status information is PTP port clock state change alarm. Theses service alarms and the syslogs are correlated under the PTP service as clock service. For more information on PTP clock status update service alarm, refer Cisco Prime Network Supported Service Alarms. PTP Interface List Table Interface Name Interface identifier. PTP Version Version of PTP used. The default value is 2, indicating PTPv2. Port Name Name of the PTP port clock. Port Role PTP role of the clock: Master or Slave.

26-41 Cisco Prime Network 4.3.2 User Guide Chapter 26 Managing Mobile Transport Over Pseudowire (MToP) Networks Network Clock Service Overview Viewing Pseudowire Clock Recovery Properties To view pseudowire clock recovery properties: Step 1Choose Logical Inventory > Clock > Pseudowire Clock Recovery. The Vision client displays the Virtual CEM information by default. See Figure 26-21. Figure 26-21 Pseudowire Clock Recovery - Virtual CEM Tab Step 2 To view more information about a virtual CEM, right-click the virtual CEM, then choose Properties. The Virtual CEM Properties window is displayed. The information that is displayed in the Virtual CEM Properties window depends on whether or not the virtual CEM belongs to a group: If a CEM group is not configured on the virtual CEM, the Virtual CEM Properties window contains only the CEM interface name. If a CEM group is configured on the virtual CEM, the Virtual CEM Properties window contains the information described in Table 26-20.

26-44 Cisco Prime Network 4.3.2 User Guide Chapter 26 Managing Mobile Transport Over Pseudowire (MToP) Networks Network Clock Service Overview Figure 26-22 Pseudowire Clock Recovery - Recovered Clock Entries Tab Table 26-22 describes the information displayed for pseudowire clock recovery. Table 26-22 Pseudowire Clock Recovery Properties Field Description Recovered Clock Source Interface (slot/subslot) in which clock recovery occurred. Click the hyperlinked entry to view its properties in physical inventory. Recovered Clock Mode Recovered clock mode: Adaptive—The devices do not have a common clock source. The recovered clock is derived from packet arrival. Differential—The edge devices have a common clock source, and the recovered clock is derived from timing information in packets and the related difference from the common clock. Synchronous—A GPS or BITS clock source externally synchronizes both end devices. This method is extremely accurate, but is rarely available for all network devices. Virtual CEM Tab CEM Interface Name Virtual CEM interface associated with the clock. Recovered Clock Entries TabThis tab appears if recovered entries exist. Transfer Type In-band—The clocking information is sent over the same pseudowire as the bearer traffic. Out-of-band—The clocking information is sent over a dedicated pseudowire between the sending and receiving SPAs.
26-45 Cisco Prime Network 4.3.2 User Guide Chapter 26 Managing Mobile Transport Over Pseudowire (MToP) Networks Network Clock Service Overview Viewing SyncE Properties With Ethernet equipment gradually replacing SONET and SDH equipment in service-provider networks, frequency synchronization is required to provide high-quality clock synchronization over Ethernet ports. Synchronous Ethernet (SyncE), a recently adopted standard, provides the required synchronization at the physical level. In SyncE, Ethernet links are synchronized by timing their bit clocks from high-quality, stratum-1-traceable clock signals in the same manner as SONET/SDH. Operations messages maintain SyncE links, and ensure a node always derives timing from the most reliable source. For configuring SyncE, see Configuring Clock, page 26-55. To view SyncE properties, choose Logical Inventory > Clock > SyncE. (See Figure 26-23.) Clock ID Clock identifier, if known. Clock Mode Clock mode of the recovered clock: Adaptive—The recovered clock was obtained using ACR. Primary—The recovered clock was obtained from a clock with the highest priority. Secondary—The recovered clock was obtained from a clock with a lower priority than the primary clock. Clock Status Status of the clock: Acquiring—The clock is obtaining clocking information. Acquired—The clock has obtained the required clocking information. Holdover—The current primary clock is invalid and a holdover timer has started to check whether or not the clock becomes valid within the specified holdover time. CEM Group CEM group associated with the clock. CEM Group ID Identifier of the CEM group associated with the clock. CEM Interface Name Virtual CEM interface associated with the clock. Frequency Offset Offset to the clock frequency, in Hz. Table 26-22 Pseudowire Clock Recovery Properties (continued) Field Description
