摘要:A transmit portion of a network device including a medium access control (MAC)module configured to receive a frame of data to be transmitted from the network device
in accordance with a MAC security (MACsec) protocol. In response to the frame of databeing a precise time protocol (PTP) frame, the MAC module is configured to encrypt thePTP frame in accordance with the MACsec protocol, and associate an identifier with theencrypted PTP frame. A physical layer module includes a transmit module configured totransmit the encrypted PTP frame from the network device at a particular time. A PTPmodule configured to, based on the identifier associated with the encrypted PTP frame,generate a time stamp indicating the particular time that the transmit module transmitsthe encrypted PTP frame from the network device. The time stamp is transmitted fromthe network device along with the encrypted PTP frame.
