Abstract: A network timing view provides enhanced visualization for synch timing in support of mobile (4G/5G deployments) and others requiring sync. It allows network managers to view relevant synch data both textually and graphically displayed on the network map nodes and links in a unified view. The user is able to select the appropriate filter on the network map to show the 1588/SyncE connectivity and relevant nodes that are participating in delivering timing. It allows a user to trace the timing path from any timing device upstream to the clock source. It also allows the user to interactively discover and navigate downstream timing paths from any timing device, similar to exploring a tree hierarchy. The timing topology and path data provided allows a user to investigate the timing network for troubleshooting purposes such as timing alarms and events, sync problems, clock quality levels and clock states.
