If you have a remote node that is connected to a PPS signal and have no
trusted NTP or NMEA data you can use an incoming PTP traffic for
recovering the ToD for a given PPS.

It solves this problem for Assisted Partial Timing Support (APTS)
deployment where a node is connected to the PPS signal from a GNSS
receiver, but doesn't have the serial port (e.x. shared GNSS receiver).

Thanks,
Maciek
