Thank you Richard now it is everything more clear, and yes I have noted that 
using '-b 1' over UDS I get the replies from BC as well. I was curious about 
the different response between the two cases.

Cheers
William

When you send out through the Ethernet interface, the local port does not 
receive the message, and even if it did, it cannot reply to itself.  So, to get 
local status, use the UDS method.

If you use '-b 1' with the UDS option, then ptp4l will forward the message, and 
you should see replies from your BC as well.

HTH,
