Abstract
A device may determine a link master/slave relationship for an Ethernet link associated with a connection between a component of the device and a component of another device. The device may determine that Synchronous Ethernet (SyncE) is to be enabled on the Ethernet link. The device may identify the component of the device as a SyncE slave or a SyncE master associated with enabling SyncE on the Ethernet link. The device may provide an indication that the component of the device has been identified as the SyncE slave or the SyncE master. The device may determine a SyncE master/slave relationship associated with enabling SyncE on the Ethernet link. The SyncE master/slave relationship may supersede the link master/slave relationship without altering the link master/slave relationship. The device may cause the component of the device to recover a clock based on the SyncE master/slave relationship rather than the link master/slave relationship.
