Hi Richard, Jake,

many thanks for your replies.

I agree for AS compliant neighbors, still I want to throw in some
points into the discussion:

- The maximum peak-to-peak rate offset of two neighbors is 200 ppm,
which doubles the worst case error to 2 us.

- The neighborPropDelayThresh for gPTP is 800 ns, which leaves an
error margin of about 200 ns (for 100 m cables).

- As stated by Richard in another thread, there might be 1588 TC peers
(or not fully AS compliant TAB) using a controlled clock instead of
local clock for timestamping, which rockets the maximum rate offset to
max_frequency of the peer. This is what I observed during my tests.

But I guess at least after some pdelay_req this tweak is pointless anyhow.
I am fine with using default NRR of 1.0 although in opinion it is not optimal.

Regards,
Burkhard
