7、1364 (05/2014) i Recommendation ITU-T G.8264/Y.1364 Distribution of timing information through packet networks Summary Recommendation ITU-T G.8264/Y.1364 outlines aspects of distribution of timing information through packet networks and initially focuses on Ethernet networks. A number of methods may

8、 be used to transfer frequency which may be physical-layer based or protocol-layer based. This Recommendation provides information on architectural aspects of timing flows in Ethernet networks which will form the basis for future work related to time and phase transfer. This Recommendation specifies

9、 the synchronization status message (SSM) protocol and formats for use with synchronous Ethernet. Adherence to the SSM formats specified in this Recommendation is required in order to ensure interoperability between synchronous Ethernet equipment involved in frequency transfer.

ITU-T G.8264/Y.1364 (05/2014) FOREWORD The International Telecommunication Union (ITU) is the United Nations specialized agency in the field of telecommunications, information and communication technologies (ICTs). The ITU Telecommunication S

13、tandardization Sector (ITU-T) is a permanent organ of ITU. ITU-T is responsible for studying technical, operating and tariff questions and issuing Recommendations on them with a view to standardizing telecommunications on a worldwide basis. The World Telecommunication Standardization Assembly (WTSA)

14、, which meets every four years, establishes the topics for study by the ITU-T study groups which, in turn, produce Recommendations on these topics. The approval of ITU-T Recommendations is covered by the procedure laid down in WTSA Resolution 1. In some areas of information technology which fall wit

15、hin ITU-Ts purview, the necessary standards are prepared on a collaborative basis with ISO and IEC. NOTE In this Recommendation, the expression “Administration“ is used for conciseness to indicate both a telecommunication administration and a recognized operating agency. Compliance with this Recomme

16、ndation is voluntary. However, the Recommendation may contain certain mandatory provisions (to ensure, e.g., interoperability or applicability) and compliance with the Recommendation is achieved when all of these mandatory provisions are met. The words “shall“ or some other obligatory language such

17、as “must“ and the negative equivalents are used to express requirements. The use of such words does not suggest that compliance with the Recommendation is required of any party. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTSITU draws attention to the possibility that the practice or implementation of this Recommendat

18、ion may involve the use of a claimed Intellectual Property Right. ITU takes no position concerning the evidence, validity or applicability of claimed Intellectual Property Rights, whether asserted by ITU members or others outside of the Recommendation development process. As of the date of approval

19、of this Recommendation, ITU had not received notice of intellectual property, protected by patents, which may be required to implement this Recommendation. However, implementers are cautioned that this may not represent the latest information and are therefore strongly urged to consult the TSB paten

28、 Recommendation outlines the requirements on Ethernet networks with respect to frequency transfer. It specifies the SSM transport channel namely the Ethernet synchronization messaging channel (ESMC), protocol behaviour and message format. A number of methods may be used to transfer frequency which m

29、ay be physical-layer based or protocol-layer based. The method used will be dependent on the actual architecture and what may be supported. This Recommendation focuses on physical layer synchronization. The physical layer that is relevant to this Recommendation is the Ethernet media types defined in

30、 IEEE 802.3. Other physical layers may also be relevant and may be addressed, along with other packet technologies, in future versions of this Recommendation. This Recommendation also details the required architecture in formal modelling language. Timing flows are used to describe where and how time

31、 and timing will flow through the architecture. Such flows describe what is functionally allowed as an acceptable timing source. Such a source may only be available for use within the equipment or may be available outside as a client service. 2 References The following ITU-T Recommendations and othe

43、presenting the quality level of the synchronous Rec. ITU-T G.8264/Y.1364 (05/2014) 3 Ethernet equipment clock (EEC), which is bonded to the physical layer. The structure of the channel is provided by an organizational specific slow protocol (OSSP). 3.2.2 non-sync operation mode: A synchronous Ethern

44、et interface configured in non-synchronous mode is an interface that, for the receive side, does not pass the recovered clock to the system clock and is therefore not a candidate reference to the synchronization selection process. It does not process the Ethernet synchronization messaging channel (E

45、SMC) that may be present and therefore cannot extract the quality level (QL) value. On the transmit side, its output frequency might be synchronized to the synchronous Ethernet equipment clock (EEC), but this remains unknown to the receive interface at the other termination of the link. Indeed, an i

46、nterface in non-synchronous mode operation does not generate an ESMC and therefore does not transmit a QL. Such an interface does not participate to the synchronization network and is functionally identical to an asynchronous interface, as defined in IEEE 802.3. 3.2.3 synchronous operation mode: A s

47、ynchronous Ethernet interface can be configured in synchronous operation mode. Its receive side is able to extract the frequency of its input signal and pass it to a system clock (a synchronous Ethernet equipment clock (EEC) or a better quality clock. It processes the Ethernet synchronization messag

48、ing channel (ESMC) and extracts the quality level (QL). This signal can now be used as a candidate frequency reference. The transmit part of the interface is locked to the output timing of the system clock and generates the ESMC to transport a QL. 4 Abbreviations and acronyms This Recommendation use
