Configure the on board clocking dynamically
- Nathaniel Halbrooks
Symptom
When troubleshooting clocking-related problems, it is useful to be able to change or reconfigure the clocking arrangement to determine the root cause of the issue.
Solution
The Dialogic Swish utility can be used to reconfigure the on board clock setting without having to reboot the board.
The following shows an example with two boards in a system:Â Board 0 and Board 1. Â
Board 0 is configured to be the clock master driving the A clock on the H100 CTÂ bus, and Board 1 is slaved to A clock.
The example shows how to reconfigure Board 0 to slave off B clock and Board 1 to be the master driving B clock using the clock signal from its second T1/E1 trunk :Â
To start the Dialogic Swish utility interactively, enter the following at the command prompt:
