Known Issues
68228: PTP client interface supports PTP priority-1 and priority-2 values only between 1 and 128. Symmetricom recommends that a value of 128 be used for PTP master port configurations. 68244: In the response to the CLI command show ptp master config, the PTP lease-limit parameter has a title of "PTP Unicast Lease Duration" 68259: In order to apply a new VLAN configuration while using the PTP default profile, you need to issue the CLI command set vlan mode eth2 disable, followed by set vlan mode eth2 enable. This issue does not apply to other PTP profiles.

SYSTEM RELEASE NOTICE
68275: The following fields displayed with CLI command show ptp client status eth1 are not updated and should not be used: – Transient free out of 900s: – Transient free out of 3600s: – Percentile Clustering (%): – Min Cluster Width (ns): – Mode width (ns):
Notes
After a firmware upgrade of the system, the system MUST be rebooted to apply the new firmware. If the system is not rebooted after the firmware upgrade, any configuration changes made to the system will be lost the next time the system is rebooted. Please note that a firmware upgrade will take approximately 7 minutes to complete. Key Default Interface Settings Parameter

Serial port settings on the DB9 interface are 57600 baud, 8N1, Flow ControlNone. Please note that all Ethernet Interfaces (MGMT, Eth1 Client, Eth2 Master) must be configured to be in different subnets/networks. If any two or more IP interfaces have the same subnet, those interfaces will not function properly. After configuring or changing any IP or VLAN parameters, you must use the set ip state {mgmt | eth1 |eth2} ipv4 restart
CLI command to restart the IP interface in order to apply the changes. After issuing this command, use the show ip status command to verify the settings.

SYSTEM RELEASE NOTICE
If using a gateway, then all IP interfaces and the VLAN interface should be configured with the proper gateway IP address and subnet mask. If not using a gateway, then configure the TP 2300/2700 to not use a gateway by setting the gateway address to 0.0.0.0. If a gateway address is programmed on ETH1, then the gateway/router must be present and reachable for the port to operate normally. During a system power-up and reboot, internal system messages will be displayed on the EIA-232 console port. These messages are normal and should be ignored. Both -48VDC power supply inputs should be connected to avoid generating -48V alarms. If only a single DC connector is used, the alarm for the unused DC connecter can be disabled as per the instructions contained within the TimeProvider 2300/2700 User's Guide. PTP slaves (clients) should be configured to not send PTP unicast negotiation requests faster than once every 10 seconds. TimeProvider 2300/2700 only supports full-duplex 100/1000 connections for the PTP/SyncE service ports. Half-duplex Ethernet hubs are therefore not supported. For SNMPv3, the following protocols are supported: – Authentication: HMAC-MD5 and HMAC-SHA – Privacy: CBC-DES and CFB-AES128
For SNMPv3 traps, both a user and a trapuser need to be configured identically. In addition, the SNMP manager should use the specified user/trapuser to connect to the TimeProvider 2300/2700. This will ensure that a SNMPv3 trap will be successfully received by the manager using the corresponding trapuser username. The TimeProvider 2300/2700 only supports the active mode of FTP; it does not support the passive (PASV) mode. The FTP server must be configured to support active mode. If systems are configured with high numbers of VLANS, the VLAN configuration commands may take up to two minutes to complete execution. PTP client interface supports PTP priority1 and priority2 values only between 1 and 128. Symmetricom recommends that a value of 128 be used for PTP master port configurations. GPS and GLONASS operate at different frequencies. The Symmetricom TP 2700 GNSS antenna kits can receive both frequencies but other GNSS antennas may only support either GPS or GLONASS. – Example: If you are using a GPS-only antenna, then that antenna will most likely filter out and attenuate the signal transmitted by the GLONASS system. As such, if you configure TP 2700 to receive the GLONASS signal, the system will likely not lock to GNSS as the received signal is too weak.
The TP 2700 GNSS interface uses the electrical current it supplies to power a GNSS antenna to determine whether or not the antenna is properly connected and functional. If the TP 2700 does not detect any current, it will assume a failed GNSS antenna and will consequently generate an alarm and switch to another timing (non-GNSS) source.

SYSTEM RELEASE NOTICE
Some GNSS splitters can block the DC current, and if used with TP 2700, would cause the alarm condition described above. Usage of such GNSS splitters with the TP2700 will require the installation of a 50 OHM load so that the TP 2700 GNSS interface is able to detect current and operate normally. For security reasons, the firewall in the TP2300 and TP2700 block the following management protocols by default: http, telnet, SNMP, and FTP. Use the set firewall command to enable access to these protocols.
