Clock locked to

Indicates whether the clock is locked to either the primary source or the secondary source.

Configured sources

Heading for the list of interfaces configured for chassis synchronization and their subsequent status indicators.

Source name

Indicates the configured interface that is the source. The external source name indicates the external clock interface.

Configured Priority

Indicates the priority configured for the interface.

Interface Status

Indicates the status of the interface as primary, secondary, or n/a (external).

Configured quality

Indicates the configured quality of the interface.

• prs —Primary reference source—Stratum 1

• st2—Stratum 2

• tnc—Transit node clock

• st3e—Stratum 3E

• st3—Stratum 3

• st4—Stratum 4

• prc—Primary reference clock

• ssu-a—Synchronization supply unit A

• ssu-b—Synchronization supply unit B

• sec—SDH equipment clock

Interface

Indicates the configured interface:

• ge-fpc/pic/port—Indicates the interface type and which FPC, PIC, and port are configured.

Status

Indicates the synchronization status of the indicated interface, as follows:

• Primary—This interface is the selected primary chassis clock source.

• Secondary—This interface is the selected secondary chassis clock source.

• n/a—This interface is not a selected clock source.

Index

Unique numeric identifier for the established Synchronous Ethernet configuration.

Clock source state

Indicates the status of the Synchronous Ethernet clock source:

• Clk qualified—The Synchronous Ethernet clock source is qualified.

• n/a—The Synchronous Ethernet clock source is not qualified.

Priority

Indicates the configured priority. The range is from 1 through 5. The following values indicate whether the parameter is not specified or undefined:

• Default(8)—The parameter is not specified.

• - —The parameter is undefined or out of range.

Configured QL

Indicates the configured source interface quality level (QL), which is dependent on the source interface and option. The following quality levels are supported and the configured QL is indicated:

• prc | ssu-a | ssu-b | sec—Network option-1 QLs

• prs | st2 | tnc | st3e | st3 | smc | st4—Network option-2 QLs

ESMC QL

Indicates the configured Ethernet Synchronization Message Channel (ESMC) quality level:

• DNU—Network option-1 source

• DSU—Network option-2 source

Clock source type

Indicates that the configured chassis synchronization clock source is one of the following types:

• ifd—Uses the free-run local oscillator.

• extern—Uses a configured qualified clock source.

Clock Event

Indicates the event clock status:

• Clock locked—Clock is established.

• n/a—Clock is not established.

Configuration flags

Indicates Ext for external interface configuration

Wait-to-restore time

Indicates the amount of time in minutes for the port signal to be up before the port is opened to receive and transmit Ethernet Synchronization messages.

Hold-off time

Indicates the amount of time in milliseconds for hold off time for Synchronous Ethernet interfaces and external clock source interfaces to prevent rapid successive switching. If an interface goes down, hold-off time delays short signal failures from being sent to the clock selection process.

Kernel flags

Indicates the Synchronous Ethernet software operational status:

• Up—The Synchronous Ethernet software is operational for the configured interface.

• pri—The source is the selected primary clock source.

• Dn—The Synchronous Ethernet software is not operational for the configured interface.

Ineligibility reason

Indicates the reason the interface is ineligible for the Synchronous Ethernet operation, including the following:

• Link Down—The link between the Synchronous Ethernet interfaces is not operational.

• Not restored—The Synchronous Ethernet link has not yet been restored because it is waiting for the specified wait-to-restore time to elapse.

• Forbidden slot—Slot 10 is not supported.

• Interface unit missing—The unit parameter is not set or is invalid.

• Locked—The paired interface is not available.

• No cfg—Synchronous Ethernet is not configured.

• RX Disabled—The receiving interface is disabled.

• Undefined/invalid QL—The QL mode is not specified in the configuration or, if specified, is not supported.

  Note:

  When GPS is configured as the clock source and the quality-mode-enable statement is configured, the Current Lock Status is displayed as Locked but Undefined/invalid QL is displayed as the Ineligibility reason. As a workaround, configure the no-ssm-support statement at the [edit chassis synchronization source interfaces interface-name] hierarchy level.

• System initialization in progress—The remote system is performing initialization and not currently available for synchronization.

• Unsupported interface—The configured interface does not support Synchronous Ethernet.

Clock module on

Indicates whether the clock module is on the Switch Control Board SCB0 or SCB1.

Current role

Indicates the role of the clock module:

• master—The clock module is on the primary SCB, which is the active chassis clock source.

• backup—The clock module is on the backup SCB, which mirrors the state of the active clock.

Current state

Indicates the state of the clock module:

• freerun—The clock module is in free-run mode. When the system starts up, the default clock module state is free-run.

• acquiring-lock on—The clock module is attempting to acquire a lock on the specified clock source.

• locked to—The clock module is locked to the specified clock source.

• holdover on—The clock module is in holdover mode on the specified clock source. Prior to the specified clock source becoming invalid, the clock module was locked on the source and holdover data was collected.

• holdover—The clock module has transitioned into holdover prior to locking on a valid clock source and collecting holdover data.

Monitored clock sources

Displays information about monitored clock sources.

Interface

Indicates the interface type and which FPC, PIC, and port are configured:
