Replaced by IEC 61588-2004 (SH95292 or SS95292) Dual-logo document Abstract: A protocol to synchronize independent clocks running on separate nodes of a distributed measurement and control system to a high degree of accuracy and precision is specified. The protocol is independent of the networking technology, and the system topology is self-configuring.

P1588a
IEEE Draft Standard for a Precision Clock Synchronization Protocol for Networked Measurement and Control Systems Amendment: Enhancements for Best Master Clock Algorithm (BMCA) Mechanisms
This amendment: a) Enhances existing mechanisms and creates new ones that contain information about the time accuracy to support execution of BMCAs, while maintaining backward compatibility, or assist in the development of alternate BMCAs; b) Provides informative text to explain the execution of the BMCA; c) Provides informative text to guide the creation of alternate BMCAs; d)tProvides an optional mechanism for managing Announce timeout; and e) Corrects errors in the text and clarifies passages that are unclear.

Standard for a Precision Clock Synchronization Protocol for Networked Measurement and Control Systems Amendment: Guidelines for selecting and operating a Key Management System
This amendment enhances the security option of the IEEE 1588-2019 in the following ways: u2022 Add guidelines on the selection and operation of specific key management technologies to Annex P. This involves the currently considered key management options and may also leverage additional key management approaches like Network Time Security (NTS). u2022 Make changes to the standard necessary to support automated key management mechanisms u2022 Fix errors and clarify unclear statements .
P1588e
Standard for a Precision Clock Synchronization Protocol for Networked Measurement and Control Systems Amendment: MIB and YANG Data Models
This amendment specifies MIB data models and YANG data models for all data sets of IEEE Std 1588-2019, and other possible amendments to IEEE Std 1588-2019. The amendment uses the MIB and YANG standards as specified by the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF). The amendment does not specify notifications, only configuration and state for data sets. In addition to introductory text and other normative text, the amendment produces module files that specify the MIB and YANG data models. The module files produced by the amendment are located on a public repository, and the content of each module file is not listed in the IEEE Std 1588 amendment document. The amendment will include the references to each module file. This amendment corrects errors in the text and clarifies unclear passages.
P1588f
Standard for a Precision Clock Synchronization Protocol for Networked Measurement and Control Systems Amendment: Enhancements for latency and/or asymmetry calibration
This amendment enhances support for latency and asymmetry calibration, and also provides informative text related to these enhancements. It corrects errors in the text and clarifies unclear passages.
P1588g
IEEE Draft Standard for a Precision Clock Synchronization Protocol for Networked Measurement and Control Systems Amendment: Master-slave optional alternative terminology
This draft standard is an amendment of IEEE Std 1588-2019. This amendment:na) Identifies alternative terms for u201cmaster' and u201cslaveu201d used in implementations or PTP Profiles;n b) Identifies alternative names for port state names;nc) Identifies abbreviations for clock roles or port states.
1588-2019
IEEE Standard for a Precision Clock Synchronization Protocol for Networked Measurement and Control Systems
In this standard, a protocol is defined that provides precise synchronization of clocks in packet-based networked systems. Synchronization of clocks can be achieved in heterogeneous systems that include clocks of different inherent precision, resolution, and stability. The protocol supports synchronization accuracy and precision in the sub-microsecond range with minimal network and local computing resources. Customization is supported by means of profiles. The protocol includes default profiles that permit simple systems to be installed and operated without the need for user management. Sub-nanosecond time transfer accuracy can be achieved in a properly designed network.

IEEE Standard for a Precision Clock Synchronization Protocol for Networked Measurement and Control Systems Amendment 1: Precision Time Protocol (PTP) Mapping for Transport over the Optical Transport Network (OTN)
This amendment to IEEE Std 1588-2019 adds a normative annex that specifies the mapping of PTP to the OTN; and adds an enumeration value to the network Protocol table (Table 3, in 7.4.1; and corrects errors in the text and clarifies unclear passages.
1588-2008
IEEE Standard for a Precision Clock Synchronization Protocol for Networked Measurement and Control Systems
This standard defines a protocol enabling precise synchronization of clocks in measurement and control systems implemented with technologies such as network communication, local computing and distributed objects. The protocol is applicable to systems communicating by local area networks supporting multicast messaging including but not limited to Ethernet. The protocol enables heterogeneous systems that include clocks of various inherent precision, resolution, and stability to synchronize to a grandmaster clock. The protocol supports system-wide synchronization accuracy in the sub-microsecond range with minimal network and local clock computing resources. The default behavior of the protocol allows simple systems to be installed and operated without requiring the administrative attention of users. The standard includes mappings to UDP/IP, DeviceNet and a layer-2 Ethernet implementation. An Interpretation is available at http://standards.ieee.org/reading/ieee/interp/1588-2008.html
