Tim,
 
In addition to the valid questions from Peter, I am also wondering why some 
additional objects which do not correspond to existing attributes in G.8265.1 
are described in this draft (mainly at the end).
 
Among these new objects (which sounds to me like proprietary parameters), one 
can identify the following ones:
   ptpOperationalMinTDEVForward OBJECT-TYPE
   ptpOperationalMinTDEVReverse OBJECT-TYPE
   ptpOperationalMAFEForward OBJECT-TYPE
   ptpOperationalMAFEReverse OBJECT-TYPE
 
Are you proposing that a PTP slave compliant with this MIB would have to 
implement all those objects?
 
Thanks.

BR,
 
Sébastien

Tim,
I had a read through the two documents and I would like a quick clarification 
clarification on the MIB. 

Is the MIB dealing with 
    a G.8265.1 Telecom Slave or 
    a G.8265.1 Slave-Only Ordinary Clock Instance or 
    a IEEE1588 Slave Only Ordinary Clock?

I am guessing that the intent was a G.8265.1 Telecom Slave but the MIB is 
missing some of the aspects of this device (e.g. list of grandmasters).  

Also every object is read-only.   Is this the intent or simply that this aspect 
has not yet been fully developed?

I have some additional comments but I want to understand the scope of this MIB 
first.

Peter R.

        For the information of people on the list, Yaakov has allocated a slot 
for the discussion of management of packet-based timing, under which I have 
submitted two internet drafts, draft-frost-tictoc-management-00, and 
draft-frost-tictoc-ptp-slave-mib-00.  See the abstracts below.

        

        Best regards,

        Abstract:

        This Internet draft investigates the management aspects associated with 
packet-based distribution of time and frequency using protocols such as PTP 
(Precision Time Protocol, [1]).  It explores some of the issues that need to be 
solved in connection with the management of synchronization distribution.

        Subject: [TICTOC] IETF78 (Maastricht) TICTOC + NTP agenda

        

        As I am sure you all know, TICTOC and NTP will be holding a joint 
meeting at the Maastricht IETF.

        

        I have posted the preliminary agenda, based on slot requests received

        http://www.ietf.org/proceedings/78/agenda/tictoc.txt .

        

        I expect that Karen will add some more NTP items before we upload the 
final agenda.

        

        If anyone else is interested in a slot, we still have a bit of spare 
time 

        (but not much if we want serious discussion over the 1588oMPLS issue).

        

        Y(J)S
