In contrast to the logging, I think the pmc output is already structured and easy to parse. But my point was to use the actual binary management TLVs, i.e. the messages that pmc turns into text. > You can access the management interface remotely I believe, although I don’t > know anything about the authorisation model. Yes, it works remotely, but IEEE 1588 does not specify an authorization model. The ptp4l programs allows queries from the network unconditionally, but setting (changing) any value requires local access via UDS. This, in turn, can be opened to remote operators by using ssh. > Also a bit of googling of SNMP and PTP also turned up these: The SNMP is another can of worms, and it isn't implemented here.
