    Hi Gents,

    I have recently acquired a Microsemi IGM-1100i Grandmaster. Unlike my old grandmaster, a TM2000A, this one isn't plug and play and being new to PTP I'm kinda lost.

    Per the user manual from the manufacturer my config is as follows:

    PTP MASTER CONFIGURATION WITH PROFILE Default:

    PTP State                      : enable
    PTP Max Number Clients         : 4
    PTP TTL                        : 20
    PTP DSCP                       : 25
    PTP Dither                     : enable
    PTP Two Steps                  : enable
    PTP Announce Limit             : 2
    PTP Sync Limit                 : -6
    PTP Delay Limit                : -2
    PTP Priority 1                 : 200
    PTP Priority 2                 : 200
    PTP Domain                     : 0
    PTP Client-Timeout             : 500
    PTP Announce-Timeout           : 4
    PTP Vlan-Id                    : 20
    PTP Timescale                  : AUTO
    
    by going through the help file with ptpd the latest command that I've tried without success is:
    
    sudo ptpd -g -C -i 0 -n 2 -b eth0
    
    any suggestions on how I can get the ptpd settings to talk to this infernal device?
    
    TIA,
    
    Andrew
