Requested revision
Standard: | IEEE Std 802.1AS-2011 | Clause: | 10.2.9.3 |
Clause title: | State diagram |
Rationale for revision
During resolution of comment #165 to P802.1AS-rev/D6.0, the working group discovered that the same clarification is needed in IEEE Std 802.1AS-2011. This maintenance request proposes to resolve that problem in IEEE Std 802.1AS-2011.
Proposed text
On page 60, near bottom of page, replace "masterTime" with "sourceTime" in the sentence "The state machine receives syncReceiptTime from the ClockSlaveSync state machine and masterTime from the ClockMasterSyncReceive state machine." This aligns with sourceTime as used in Figure 10-6.
Impact on existing networks
None.
This is a clarification only.
The ClockMasterSyncOffset state machine of 10.2.9 is an internal state machine
that is not directly represented on-the-wire. Also, it seems likely that an
implementer would catch the mistake and correct it in the implementation.
