How to Set Up an Interface as a PTP Master

1. Become an administrator.

   For more information, see Using Your Assigned Administrative Rights in Securing Users and Processes in Oracle Solaris 11.2 .

2. Set a system as the PTP master.

   # svccfg -s svc:/network/ptp:default setprop config/node_type=master

3. Enable an interface to listen to the PTP packets.

   # svccfg -s svc:/network/ptp:default setprop config/listen_ifname=interface-name

4. Enable the PTP service on the master system.

   # svcadm enable svc:/network/ptp:default

   If the PTP service is already enabled, restart the PTP service.

   # svcadm restart svc:/network/ptp:default
