Precision Time Protocol Version 2 Management Information Base
RFC 8173, “Precision Time Protocol Version 2 Management Information Base”, is a Proposed Standard document published in June 2017 by V. Shankarkumar, L. Montini, T. Frost, G. Dowd. The canonical text is published by the RFC Editor.
Abstract
This memo defines a portion of the Management Information Base (MIB) for use with network management protocols in internets based on TCP or IP. In particular, it defines objects for managing networks using the Precision Time Protocol (PTP), specified in IEEE Std. 1588-2008.
This memo specifies a MIB module in a manner that is both compliant to the Structure of Management Information version 2 (SMIv2) and semantically identical to the peer SMIv1 definitions.
What “Proposed Standard” means
An entry-level standards-track specification: stable, peer-reviewed and a solid basis for implementation, though it may still evolve before becoming an Internet Standard.
