Abstract
An example method includes creating, by a computing system and in response to user input, one or more virtual master devices and a plurality of virtual leaf devices in a virtual network system; selecting, by the computing system, data from one or more of real-time clock offset data, prerecorded clock offset data, or synthetically generated clock offset data; executing, by the computing system, a time synchronization simulation by applying a predefined clock offset generation algorithm to the selected data; and outputting, by the computing system, data indicative of results of the time synchronization simulation.
