GS308P PTP LAG
Hi guys, recently I bought a GS308P unmanaged switch for data collecting system. However, it is found that the lag between two devices is larger than another Linksys smart switch. In this case, the d...
Hi everyone,
Here comes the update of this issue.
I get a solution of using GS305P instead of GS308P. This solution works. It seems that the chipset has some problem in GS308P.
So, if you need to some works requiring synchronization, GS308P may not be the best choice at present.
Hope the engineers can solve it in the future product.
Hi lynlin
Welcome to our community!
A 10.000 ns delay is much bigger that what you should get in a Gigabit Ethernet Network. We tested the GS305P and the delay added should be arround microseconds. There are different reason that you can expect a similar issue:
- Saturated Network - can you check if when you are doing the tests there are other source of traffics that are interfering the tests.
- Retransmisions - Could happen that the packet is retransmited due to a longer MTU or a cable or port issue.
- Mix Environment- Do all the devices connected running at 1Gbps?
Could you check if any of the above issues could be causing your issues?
Hope it helps
