-Holdover allows the grandmaster (T-GM) clock to maintain synchronization performance when the GNSS source is unavailable. During this period, the T-GM clock relies on its internal oscillator and holdover parameters to reduce timing disruptions.

 You can define the holdover behavior by configuring the following holdover parameters in the `PTPConfig` custom resource (CR):

+image:darkcircle-1.png[20,20] The GNSS signal is lost, causing the T-GM clock to enter the `HOLDOVER` mode. The T-GM clock maintains time accuracy using its internal clock.

+image:darkcircle-2.png[20,20] The GNSS signal is restored and the T-GM clock re-enters the `LOCKED` mode. When the GNSS signal is restored, the T-GM clock re-enters the `LOCKED` mode only after all dependent components in the synchronization chain, such as `ts2phc` offset, digital phase-locked loop (DPLL) phase offset, and GNSS offset, reach a stable `LOCKED` mode.
