[Linuxptp-devel] Enterprise Profile Hybrid E2E Mode - Slave's Acceptable Master Table

[Daniel Le]

Hello,

Does LinuxPTP 1.6 implement Acceptable Master Table? If not, how does a PTP slave select a master when there are multiple masters in the network? And I would appreciate pointers to where in the code to look at for adding this functionality if unavailable.

Thanks,
Daniel

See port_compute_best() in port.c. You will also need to consider how
to implemented the configuration.

Thanks,
