I'm trying to setup my RHEL computer to sync to a NTP server with PTP 
abilities. I've been the ptp4l website and the following the RHEL website 
(https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_enterprise_linux/7/html/system_administrators_guide/ch-configuring_ptp_using_ptp4l).
 But when I type in the "ptp4l -i eno1 -m" command (my ptp server is connected 
to eno1 and not eth3).

Am I supposed to specify the PTP servers IP anywhere? I didn't see really any 
mention in config or anywhere

When it runs, nothing happens. I get messages saying it picks a localclock as 
the grandmaster. I can ping the NTP server's PTP IP. Searching online doesn't 
seem to yield anything? Is it maybe because my NTP/PTP server is behind a 
switch? The workstation doesn't appear in the PTP client list either.

This is what I am seeing
"sudo ptp4l -i eno1 -m
ptp4l[85176.146]: selected /dev/ptp0 as PTP clock
ptp4l[85176.147]: port 1: INITIALIZING to LISTENING on INIT_COMPLETE
ptp4l[85176.147]: port 0: INITIALIZING to LISTENING on INIT_COMPLETE
ptp4l[85183.883]: port 1: LISTENING to MASTER on 
ANNOUNCE_RECEIPT_TIMEOUT_EXPIRES
ptp4l[85183.883]: selected local clock 00802f.fffe.313d9b as best master
ptp4l[85183.883]: assuming the grand master role"

Any assistance would be appreciated, thanks!
