P802.1ASdm – Hot Standby
This amendment specifies protocols, procedures, and managed objects for hot standby without use of the Best Master Clock Algorithm (BMCA), for time-aware systems, including:
- A function that transforms the synchronized times of two generalized Precision Time Protocol (gPTP) domains into one synchronized time for use by applications;
- A function that directs the synchronized time of one gPTP domain into a different gPTP domain; and
- Mechanisms that determine whether a gPTP domain has sufficient quality to be used for hot standby.
This amendment also addresses errors and omissions in the description of existing functionality.
