After this, you should see a one line synchronization report every
second, but only at log level 6 (LOG_INFO). You said, '-l5'.

These refer to the state machine from the IEEE 1588 standard. The
message shows state transitions and the event that triggered them. In
this case, "RS_SLAVE" means that the result of the Best Master Clock
algorithm was "recommended state slave".

To see all of the available messages, use: ptpt4l -l9
