Hello Richard, at least for me the specification is quite confusing at this point.
Chapter "10.5.4.1 General Signaling message specifications" of IEEE8021AS-2011 describes targetPortIdentity with a size of 10 octets. But the following chapter mentions only 0xFF and not 0xFF FFFF FFFF FFFF FFFF. > 10.5.4.2 Signaling message field specifications > 10.5.4.2.1 targetPortIdentity (PortIdentity) > The value is 0xFF. -- Mit freundlichen Grüßen / Best regards Timo Wischer Cross-Domain Computing Solutions Engineering Architecture and Core Functions PSA and GM projects (XC-CI1/EPC1-E) Robert Bosch Car Multimedia GmbH | Postfach | 31132 Hildesheim | GERMANY | www.bosch.com Tel. +49(5121)49-2672 | Fax +49(5121)49-6999 | timo.wisc...@de.bosch.com Registered Office: Hildesheim, Registration Court: Amtsgericht Hildesheim HRB 201334 Chairman of the Supervisory Board: Dr. Walter Schirm; Managing Directors: Dirk Biermann; Andree Zahir On Wed, 2021-03-10 at 06:59 -0800, Richard Cochran wrote: > On Wed, Mar 10, 2021 at 09:47:18AM +0100, Timo Wischer via Linuxptp-devel > wrote: > > +const struct PortIdentity wildcard_pid2 = { > > + .clockIdentity = { > > + {0xff, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00} > > + }, > > + .portNumber = 0x0000, > > Where does this wildcard come from? > > (I don't recall seeing it in 802.1AS) > > Thanks, > Richard _______________________________________________ Linuxptp-devel mailing list Linuxptp-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/linuxptp-devel
