Configures the PTP clock. You can create the following clock types:
•Ordinary—A 1588 clock with a single PTP port that can operate in
Master or Slave mode.
•Boundary—Participates in selecting the best master clock and can act as
the master clock if no better clocks are detected.
Note
Sets the preference level for a clock. Slave devices use the priority1 value
when selecting a master clock: a lower priority1 value indicates a
preferred clock. The priority1 value is considered above all other clock
attributes.
Valid values are from 0-255. The default value is 128.
