Hello,

I would like to understand whether Windows PtpClient supports multicast P2P or not.

There is a fair amount of information on this topic here, but I still don't understand whether the PtpClient can be configured/supported in P2P mode.

In the document Validation Guide - Precision Time Protocol.docx it is mentioned that the client supports default profile:

The Windows PTP Provider supports IEEE 1588v2 with the default profile only

I haven't looked into the standard, but the information from various sources suggests that P2P is part of the 'default profile'. However, my experimentation with various options seems to work only in end-to-end (E2E) modes (multicast and unicast).

My question is whether Window PtpClient supports multicast P2P? If the answer is yes, then I am eager to learn how to do it. Otherwise, it would be great to know the reason(s) why it is not supported or it may be sometime in the future?
