ABSTRACT:
A method of operating and maintaining the clock of the system for determining a reference clock of the system when starting an operation and maintenance processor (OMP), comprises the steps of: a first step of requesting and receiving a hardware clock from a network synchronizing processor (NSP); a second step of checking if the received hardware clock does not fall between a predetermined minimum and a predetermined maximum, and if so, providing an alarm message which requires an operator to provide information on a reference clock and if not, requesting reference clocks from all of the processors except an operation and maintenance processor (OMP); and a third step of comparing the hardware clock and the received reference clocks as many times as the number of the received reference clocks, and determining the hardware clock as a reference clock of the system if a difference is less than or equal to a predetermined time for more than the predetermined number of times and if not, providing an alarm message which requires the operator to provide information on a clock as necessary to determine the reference clock of the system.
