NIC for High-precision timing synchronization with IEEE 1588 PTP
  • Intel X710
  • Intel E810-XXVDA4
  • Broadcom 57504 100G
  • NVIDIA Mellanox MCX512A-ACAT (ConnectX-5) 100G
  • NVIDIA Mellanox MCX623106AC-CDAT, MCX623106AN-CDAT (ConnectX-6) 100G
  • Silicom TimeSync STS2

Note

It is recommended to configure systems to use the realtime kernel when using IEEE 1588 PTP with Intel E810 series NICs using the ice driver.

The standard kernel cannot provide any guarantees for ice driver thread priority and scheduling which can result in degraded PTP timing accuracy.

NIC for High-precision timing synchronization with IEEE 1588 PTP, SyncE and GNSS
  • Intel E810-XXVDA4T 25G
  • Intel E810-CQDA2T 100G

Note

It is recommended to configure systems to use the realtime kernel when using IEEE 1588 PTP with Intel E810 series NICs using the ice driver.

The standard kernel cannot provide any guarantees for ice driver thread priority and scheduling which can result in degraded PTP timing accuracy.
