Clocking works over dark fiber. • INTERNAL means that the SRP interface uses its internal 20ppm or Stratum-3 clock. LINE means it takes timing from the other side of the line. • Having both sides with clocking set to INTERNAL is the default configuration and results in normal operation. • Having both sides with clocking set to LINE is not advised and will result in bit interleaved parity (BIP) errors over time. • Pairing opposite sides of a connection with one side INTERNAL and one side LINE is acceptable, but not necessary. Ideal clocking is achieved when all interfaces have the clocking set to INTERNAL. The following example shows this configuration: router(config)# interface srp 1/1 router(config-if)# srp clock-source internal A router(config-if)# srp clock-source internal B PASS-THRU Mode The SRP line card acts as an optical regenerator when it is operating in PASS-THRU mode. PASS-THRU mode isolates the node. This mode is activated when the interface is placed in shutdown mode, or the node is not receiving layer 2 keepalives on side A or side B. Use the shutdown interface configuration command to place the router SRP interface in PASS-THRU mode. PASS-THRU mode is a useful troubleshooting tool for isolating which node on the ring is faulty.

Verifying Clocking
There are two modes of clocking for the SRP interface, LINE and INTERNAL. Clocking works over
dark fiber.
INTERNAL means that the SRP interface uses its internal 20ppm or Stratum-3 clock. LINE means
it takes timing from the other side of the line.
Having both sides with clocking set to INTERNAL is the default configuration and results in normal
operation.
Having both sides with clocking set to LINE is not advised and will result in bit interleaved parity
(BIP) errors over time.
Pairing opposite sides of a connection with one side INTERNAL and one side LINE is acceptable,
but not necessary.
Ideal clocking is achieved when all interfaces have the clocking set to INTERNAL. The following
example shows this configuration:
router(config)#
interface srp 1/1
router(config-if)#
srp clock-source internal A
router(config-if)#
srp clock-source internal B
PASS-THRU Mode
The SRP line card acts as an optical regenerator when it is operating in PASS-THRU mode. PASS-THRU
mode isolates the node. This mode is activated when the interface is placed in shutdown mode, or the
node is not receiving layer 2 keepalives on side A or side B.
Use the
shutdown
interface configuration command to place the router SRP interface in PASS-THRU
mode.
PASS-THRU mode is a useful troubleshooting tool for isolating which node on the ring is faulty.
