ptp4l does not register eth0 as ptpdevice












0















following the steps here i found that when you run the following command:



sudo ptp4l -m -i eth0


the expected output is selected eth0 as PTP clock



what i get though is selected devptp1 as PTP clock



I have searched around a bit and cant seem to find how to fix this. when I run this with a config file it does the same thing. setting to salveonly does not change anything and the eth0 interface does support hardware time stamping. the time server is a GPS based TimeMachine and is reachable on the network via eth0 and the udp ports are open to allow it. im trying to figure out how to avoid ptp4l from defaulting to its builtin ptp0 and ptp1 devices. eth0 is also not listed in the /dev directory.



using phc2sys to help manage and when running the service when ptp4l is running as daemon. phc2sys is just hanging and waiting for ptp4l. service ptp4l status shows that is running and it will run without issue but defaults to /dev/ptp1 when the config is explicitly stating it should use eth0. its simply not listening where i am telling it to listen. the OS is ubuntu. any insight and help is greatly appreciated. I feel like i am missing something important but simple.
