Fwd: [Filtering of NTP-access to swisstime.ethz.ch as of July 1st, 2013]
I'm forwarding this heads-up for the shutdown of the well-known NTP server swisstime.ethz.ch on behalf of the ETH Zurich. -- Alex SWITCH NOC AS559
Alex: You should also get this posted to the NTP.ORG community. http://www.pool.ntp.org Also a Usenet posting (who still uses that, right?) to comp.protocols.time.ntp will also help get the word out. On 6/25/2013 6:33 AM, gall@switch.ch wrote:

Forwarded it to the ntp-pool list. -- staticsafe O< ascii ribbon campaign - stop html mail - www.asciiribbon.org Please don't top post. Please don't CC! I'm subscribed to whatever list I just posted on.

It's been marked as inactive since the end of last year (http://support.ntp.org/bin/view/Servers/InactiveTimeServers). I don't know if it was in the NTP pool, but I'm sure the ETH folks have removed it from there as well if it was.

I wonder how long it will take before anybody actually updates their config. I once pulled a stratum-2 out of the clocks.txt file - and was still seeing several hundred unique hosts per hour poking the IP address for time - like over a decade later.

Would actually be interesting to get a brief update on how many of these SNTP requests the Madison NTP server still gets. At the time, Dave hypothesized that the affected devices would have a half-life of about 5 years - so 10 years on, you would expect this to have subsided to around 25% of the initially report rate. I wonder if that held true? Mike
