SUMMARY STEPS

1.enable

DETAILED STEPS

 

 

 

 

 

Command or Action

Purpose

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Step 1

enable

Enables privileged EXEC mode.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Enter your password if prompted.

 

 

 

 

 

Example:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Router> enable

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Step 2

configure terminal

Enters global configuration mode.

 

 

 

 

 

Example:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Router# configure terminal

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Step 3

interface

Enters interface configuration mode.

 

 

 

 

 

Example:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Router(config)# interface

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Step 4

synchronous mode

Configures the ethernet interface to synchronous mode.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Note This command is applicable to Synchronous

 

 

 

 

 

Example:

 

 

 

Ethernet capable interfaces. The default value is

 

 

 

 

 

Router(config-if)# synchronous mode

 

 

 

asynchronous mode.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Step 5

network-clock hold-off {0

Configures hold-off timer for interface. The default value

 

 

 

 

 

50-10000}

is 300 milliseconds.

 

 

 

 

 

Example:

Note Displays a warning for values below 300 ms and

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

above 1800 ms.

 

 

 

 

 

Router(config-if)#network-clock

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

hold-off 1000

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Step 6

network-clock wait-to-restore

Configures the wait-to-restore timer on the SyncE

 

 

 

 

 

0-86400

interface.

 

 

 

 

 

Example:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Caution

 

Ensure that you set the wait-to-restore values

 

 

 

 

 

Router(config-if)#network-clock

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

above 50 seconds to avoid timing flap.

 

 

 

 

 

wait-to-restore 1000
