+Running the daemon:

+Currently, the driver only works with peer-to-peer wireless connections.

+the BMCA algorithm can't complete. The result is both peers assume the master
+role. To fix this, force one peer to be slave with the following command line:
+
+./gptp.exe -w -R 255 <local hw device MAC> <local P2P MAC> <remove P2P MAC>
