Like the last post in this sequence, this was a lot of fun. Thanks.
-I recall that IEEE 1588 (PTP) took up some amount of network overhead and am wondering if that's still an issue today.
- The Time Appliance was fascinating - thank you - but sounds like it too would need line of sight to the sky to work? (meaning, a cable run up to the roof of the data center where a GPS antenna could go?)
and then there's this. GPS spoofing / interference is not new, but the magnitude of it is. https://www.fierce-network.com/wireless/communications-gps-spoofing-comes-fore
The consequences of GPS disruption in today's world is dire!

From what LTT tested, the time appliance just had an antenna on the back of the card. It seems to work without line of sight, according to the video.
