All clocks in the sfptpd
PTP slave server can be stepped at any
time using the sfptpdctl
utility.
Clocks will be stepped, forwards or backwards, into the same second period as the parent clock.
When clocks are stepped, entries similar to the following are generated in the
sfptpd
message log or stats_log:
# sfptpdctl stepclocks
