Abstract
The present invention relates to a method and device for determining a synchronization fault in a synchronization network, where values of a clock control parameter associated with the synchronization control in a node are compared with a predicted mask value for said clock control parameter, and a synchronization fault is determined if one or more of the measured values lies outside of the predicted mask.
