摘要:
In one embodiment, a timing slave packet switching device receives a received primary reference clock signal. The timing slave packet switching device communicates a first plurality of packet network synchronization packets over a packet switching network with a remote primary reference clock source and derives an over-network clock based on the first plurality of packet network synchronization packets. A phase offset between the phase of the over-network clock and the phase of the received primary reference clock signal is determined and typically stored in non-volatile storage. Subsequent to said determining the phase offset, the timing slave packet switching device communicates a second plurality of packet network synchronization packets over the packet switching network with the remote primary reference clock source and adjusts the phase of a clock derived from the second plurality of packet network synchronization packets based on the phase offset.
