Hi Chris, 'tis done. Are you trying to get the record for as many countries as possible on one server? :smiley:

#373

Hello Elljay,

Thanks for adding Spain.
No i’m just trying to help countries with very few (or none) NTP servers…as long as my ISP box works.
Because it is the weakest part of my network.

Do you know a good and cheap router that can accept 15000 new connections / second ?

Not sure if you need it for some reason, but usually it’s best to disable connection tracking for the NTP port completely. No memory wasted on NTP clients.

A few months since my last post, tick.montreal.ca.logiplex.net is serving many more replies than it had usually been, now at about 25kqps (more than a million a minute) oppose to 15kqps, at the 1000MiBit setting. Things are holding strong but please don’t consider this thread as closed post or ‘done deal’. The China zone still needs help, especially with servers on its continent.

The server is now running Debian 9 with SELinux enabled.

Thanks and kind regards.

I added 3 more servers to CN/IN zone. I am serving about ~20kqps at 1000 MiBit setting. Hope that took some load off of your servers.
