    <title>topic gPTP- switch becoming the master of both sides? in ExtremeSwitching (EXOS/Switch Engine)</title>

    <description>Hi, &lt;BR /&gt;
I'm using x430-8p switch, connected to two PCs that use the OpenAvnu AVB implementation. &lt;BR /&gt;
AVB is enabled in the switch. &lt;BR /&gt;
My question is regarding the gPTP protocol- the computer in both sides appear to have the switch itself as a grandmaster. &lt;BR /&gt;
Does the switch contain a clock which is better than the computers' clocks? Or maybe it's just an abstraction done by the switch on the gPTP packets from both sides?&lt;BR /&gt;
&lt;BR /&gt;
Also- I try to send Announce messages with higher priority from one of the sides, but the switch seems to ignore them. Any idea why? It does use BMCA, right?&lt;BR /&gt;
&lt;BR /&gt;
Thanks</description>
