        I think they are talking about generating an OC3s worth
of traffic.  while you could fill it all up w/ ntp packets
as one method, I do not beleive it will create the desired result.

        but yes, if you are wanting to measure
latency across your network or a circuit, ntp when properly
synchronized can be quite a useful tool.
