A supervisor provides a plurality of virtual nodes. A storage medium stores a plurality of information elements. A controller, which is separate from the supervisor, provides a plurality of virtual precision time protocol (PTP) clock devices. Each virtual PTP clock device corresponds to an information element. The controller uses the information element corresponding to a given virtual precision time protocol clock device to provide a precision time protocol-based time for the given virtual precision time protocol clock device.
