1From the System Administration menu, select [4] Manage System Clock to display the System Clock Configuration menu, shown in Figure 34.

Figure 34 System Clock Configuration Menu

2Select [3] Set PriorityClock 1 to specify the clock which you want to designate as the priority 1 (highest priority) clock.

3Enter the option number corresponding to the clock you want to designate as the priority 1 system clock. The clock options correspond to the available ports.

If you are configuring a PathBuilder S310, do not select unavailable ports (ports 2-4, CBR ports 2 and 3, and OC3/STM-1) as system clocks—even though the software lists these ports and allows you to select them.

4Repeat steps 2 and 3 to designate up to seven additional clocks as the priority 2 through 8 clocks, substituting the appropriate option in step 2. For example, to designate the priority 2 clock, select [4] Set PriorityClock 2.

5Select [11] Set System Clock to Highest PriorityClock to set the system clock to the clock you designated as the priority 1 clock in step 3 above. If this clock fails, the PathBuilder S330/S310 will automatically use the clock with the next highest priority as its reference clock.

Setting up In order for the PathBuilder S330/S310 to communicate to the Ethernet network, Communication you must set the correct communication parameters. To do this, select [3] Manage
