[Linuxptp-devel] Windows and Linux mixed network

[Vanderpool, Clyde]

Hello,

I am new to this type of forum so I hope I am posting this correctly. I
was wondering if it is possible to integrate machines with Linux OS that
are synced via Linux PTP to Windows machines that are using Greyware to
implement PTP.

I have been in touch with the support staff from Greyware and they
suggested using PTPd for the Linux machines. I have been using Linux PTP
up until this point and have been happy with the performance but I need to
get all the different OS to play nicely together. Is there a way to
configure my Linux PTP synced machines so that they recognize a Windows
computer as a master clock?

Thank you!

I wouldn't expect any trouble inter-operating with any other stack.

No special configuration should be required. Are you seeing problems
with this setup?

Thanks,

BTW, your question is more of a "users" question, and so it would have
been better on the linuxptp-users list (but no big deal :)

Thanks,
