* In case of uni-directional time sync, TMU handshake is
* initiated by upstream router. In case of bi-directional
* time sync, TMU handshake is initiated by downstream router.
- * Therefore, we change the rate to off in the respective
- * router.
+ * We change downstream router's rate to off for both uni/bidir
+ * cases although it is needed only for the bi-directional mode.
+ * We avoid changing upstream router's mode since it might
+ * have another downstream router plugged, that is set to
+ * uni-directional mode and we don't want to change it's TMU
+ * mode.
