Usage Guidelines

Announce messages are advertisement messages in PTP, which are used to establish the master-slave hierarchy between devices. If the interface discards Announce messages, the device where the interface resides cannot receive clock synchronization information from other PTP devices. Usually, the ptp announce-drop enable command is configured on the interface at the user side to prevent the interface from receiving and processing Announce messages. This saves system resources.

Example

# Configure the mode of processing Announce messages on XGigabitEthernet1/0/1 of the PTP device to discard.

<HUAWEI> system-view
[HUAWEI] interface xgigabitethernet 1/0/1
[HUAWEI-XGigabitEthernet1/0/1] ptp announce-drop enable
