  • 1.  CNX: Any news about PTP fetarure addenum to UI?!?!?

    Posted Aug 14, 2026 01:50 AM

    Hello,

    Is there roadmap when usefull things will be added to CNX? My need-to-have focus is still in PTP features.

    API way to do it should be there (components are there) but it seems to be  impossible to get information how to attach simple "ptp enable" to port profile so that "selected dummy users" can easily change port configuration when needed...

    Nobody on the forum can give you a roadmap date, so I'll skip that part and stick to what's mechanically true today.

    The piece you're missing is that CNX has two layers for CX ports: the port profile (interface-profiles in the API, a bundle keyed by model and port range) and the per-device interface-ethernet object, which an HPE engineer pointed to in a spring thread about applying profiles to real switchports. Whether interface-ethernet exposes a ptp enable attribute is the thing I couldn't confirm from the published reference, and it's the discriminating question. If it's there, your dummy users get a one-call script per port. If it isn't, there's no supported place to put it, and the config refresh wiping your support mode edits is by design, not a bug: CNX owns the running config.

    Worth asking your SE for the interface-ethernet schema specifically, and filing the PTP-on-port-profile gap through the ideas portal so it has a ticket number rather than a forum post.

    JL-BHw358, any luck getting the interface-ethernet schema from your SE? That's the one thing to check. If it lists a ptp attribute, a per-port call covers your users. If it doesn't, the ideas portal ticket is the only route. If that sorted it, marking the reply as the fix helps the next person who lands here.

    No I did not got that much information about this... Just normal links to api documentation etc which I have already checked out year ago and tested like 1000 times...

    Configuration I need is either in Interface Ethernet API (no idea how to assign this to physical interface) or in Sw Port profile IF I make interface as an LAG (?!?! As far as I know it is recommended to put "ptp enable" to physical interface because transparent profiles need to work between physical interfaces)
