DETAILED STEPS

Configuring ESMC in Interface Configuration Mode

Complete the following steps to configure ESMC in interface configuration mode:
SUMMARY STEPS
1. enable
2. configure terminal
3. interface
4. esmc mode {tx | rx}
5. network-clock source quality-level value {tx | rx}
6. esmc mode ql-disabled
Command or Action Purpose
Step 1 enable
Example:
Router> enable
Enables privileged EXEC mode.
Enter your password if prompted.
Step 2 configure terminal
Example:
Router# configure terminal
Enters global configuration mode.
Step 3 network-clock synchronization mode
ql-enabled
Example:
Router(config)# network-clock
synchronization mode ql-enabled
Configures the automatic selection process QL-enabled
mode.
QL is disabled by default.
ql-enabled mode can be used only when the
synchronization interface is capable to send SSM.
Step 4 esmc process
Example:
Router(config)# esmc process
Enables the ESMC process.
Note ESMC can be enabled globally or at the sync-E
interface level
Step 5 network-clock quality-level {tx |
rx}
value
{interface
interface-name
slot/sub-slot/port
| external
slot/sub-slot/port
| gps
slot/sub-slot
| controller
slot/sub-slot/port
}
Example:
Router(config)# network-clock
quality-level rx qL-pRC external
0/0/0 e1 crc4
Forces the QL value for line or external timing output.
