By Andreja Jarc. In my last post I promised to show you how to configure the IEEE 1588 Default Profile on a grandmaster (GM) via a web interface. This is what we will do right now. We will use the same PTP master device M600/GPS/PTP from Meinberg with V6 firmware as we did in the […]
Let’s configure the IEEE 1588 Default Profile
By Andreja Jarc. The theory on IEEE 1588 PTP its functions and features have been extensively covered in our previous blog posts. To refresh your knowledge you can refer here. As you may have noticed the PTP environment is exceptionally complex due to its flexible design to solve sync problems of many diverse applications in wide […]
Measuring Asymmetric Delay in the networks
By Andreja Jarc. Finally good news on the subject of measuring asymmetric delays in LAN and WAN networks using packet timing technologies. Meinberg Radioclocks provides a reliable solution for measuring asymmetry in NTP as well as IEEE 1588 PTP environments using a LANTIME server equipped with a Multi Reference Source (MRS) receiver. MRS is a special reference clock which […]
High availability Bonding Configuration
In one of our articles, we addressed different types of redundancy in NTP networks and high availability bonding was one of them. This setup implemented with Meinberg LANTIME systems assures the constant availability of an NTP server, even if the LAN port responsible for NTP traffic fails or the network infrastructure this port is connected […]
HOW to setup an NTP Cluster
By Andreja Jarc. If you’re thinking of building your own NTP pool within your middle or large sized company, and if you are concerned about the safety and availability of time service in the network, you may consider a cluster setup with your NTP servers. In one of our previous posts we discussed different approaches […]
