First of all, the telecom profile is unicast only.  We do not support
unicast.

Secondly, from the telecom profile:

   A.3.4 REQUEST_UNICAST_TRANSMISSION TLV

   For requesting unicast Sync messages: The configurable range shall
   be one message every 16 seconds to 128 messages per second. No
   default rate is specified.

   For requesting unicast Delay_Resp messages: The configurable range
   shall be one message every 16 seconds to 128 messages per
   second. No default rate is specified.

   ITU-T G.8265.1  page 20

So, your 512 figure is *way* out of spec.

If the path is not changing, then it does not make sense to measure it
so often.  I would expect a telecom network to be engineered to have
fixed delays.

This means using Linux kernel version 3.10 or newer.
