What is tnPtpCommState?

The current state of this unicast slave's negotiation with its master: idle (unused entry), init (Announce sent, awaiting response), conn (master responded), sell (this master selected as current), or sync (master actively sending Sync messages). Admins read this to see exactly where a unicast session is stuck if sync isn't being achieved.

Examples

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.868.2.5.123.1.6.1.6
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> TN-PTP-MIB::tnPtpCommState

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.868.2.5.123.1.6.1.6.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> TN-PTP-MIB::tnPtpCommState.1
