    Hi,

    I've built a VM With CentOS 7 and e1000 virtual NIC. I'm using ptp4l and phc2sys

    When it comes to ptp4l - everything works with software (SOF_TIMESTAMPING_SOFTWARE), but when I try to setup phc2sys, all I get is:

    "interface eno33554976 does not have a PHC" (the eno33554976 is my nic)

    Any suggestions?

    According to compatibility matrix from this link: The Linux PTP Project

    E1000 network adapter is not supported, so you need to add E1000e too your machine.

    But you can not add e1000e from UI to Linux machines: VMware KB: Choosing a network adapter for your virtual machine

    So you can edit your VMX file and replace e1000 with e1000e.

    Then check your problem.
