PTP Offset/Skew Threshold Breaches Indicate Time Sync Degradation

PTP monitoring thresholds for offset-from-master (max 1 second), mean-path-delay (max 1 second), and skew (0-1000% frequency difference) generate syslog alerts when time synchronization degrades. For applications requiring microsecond-level timing accuracy, threshold breaches require immediate investigation of master clock health, network path asymmetry, and physical layer issues.
