ClockIdentity

  • Base type OctetString
  • Range 1 — 255

The clock Identity is an 8-octet array and will be presented in the form of a character array. The value of the ClockIdentity should be taken from the IEEE EUI-64 individual assigned numbers as indicated in Section 7.5.2.2.2 of [1]. The EUI-64 address is divided into the following fields. OUI byte[0-2] Extension identifier bytes:[3-7] The clock identifier can be constructed from existing EUI-48 assignments and here is an abbreviated example extracted from section 7.5.2.2.2 [1]. Company EUI-48 = 0xACDE4823456716 EUI-64 = ACDE48FFFE23456716 It is important to note the IEEE Registration Authority has deprecated the use of MAC-48 in any new design.
