wait, so the whole of the thread is about stopping participants in the

switch/routing gear and doing something more complex than:
 deny udp any 123 any
 deny udp any 123 any 123
 permit ip any any

Which just pushes NTP to some other port, making control harder. We’ve already pushed all ‘interesting' traffic to port 
80 on TCP, which has made traffic control very expensive. Let’s not repeat that history.
