Is there any solution for this??
There is no problem that I can see. This is the expected output when your PC is the only PTP node in your network. Add another PTP node into your network, and something more interesting will happen, namely one node will begin synchronizing to the other one. > Also, can you explain me who is master, grandmaster and slave here.

Instead, they describe the role of a single port in the PTP state machine. Your port has progressed through the followings states: INITIALIZING -> LISTENING -> MASTER It did this because no better master was discovered in your network. (In fact, no other master at all is present.)
