I may have expressed myself in a misleading way. I do not want to simulate a clock network. I have an embedded device that should synchronize its time via PTP. Since I don't have a HW clock available, I want my PC (or maybe an RPI) to act as master clock and connect it to the device. The time source for the master clock should be the system time of my PC. ________________________________ From: Richard Cochran <richardcoch...@gmail.com> Sent: Wednesday, December 8, 2021 4:06 PM To: Kirchhoff, Philip (SE GP T HG PE T 1 2) <philip.kirchh...@siemens-energy.com> Cc: linuxptp-users@lists.sourceforge.net <linuxptp-users@lists.sourceforge.net> Subject: Re: [Linuxptp-users] Linuxptp for Masterclock simulation

Or maybe you can use Miroslav's awesome simulation environment: https://deu01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fgithub.com%2Fmlichvar%2Flinuxptp-testsuite&data=04%7C01%7Cphilip.kirchhoff%40siemens-energy.com%7C4a6d1b835a524103fa1708d9ba5c427b%7C254ba93e1f6f48f390e6e2766664b477%7C1%7C0%7C637745727674174875%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000&sdata=2cXVR8s5snY7RZjFg3m3ZNEAGptDsr55B8J0%2BlrbbOU%3D&reserved=0 https://deu01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fgithub.com%2Fmlichvar%2Fclknetsim&data=04%7C01%7Cphilip.kirchhoff%40siemens-energy.com%7C4a6d1b835a524103fa1708d9ba5c427b%7C254ba93e1f6f48f390e6e2766664b477%7C1%7C0%7C637745727674174875%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000&sdata=nqwqfAhen%2Bo9eFjOEdqc3qXOW18fn1bnoyIjxs37oNU%3D&reserved=0 HTH, Richard
