Flow monitor reports NTP under OpenVPN

garylaw
Running version 8.300

I looked at the Flow Monitor for ALL interfaces

There was a lot of entries under OpenVPN - all for UDP/123.

Checked the NTP configuration and removed the us.pool.ntp.org entry (this resolves to 385 ip addresses).

Re-booted to see what happened.

Now the Flow Monitor for ALL shows  2 entries for OpenVPN - these correspond to the NTP servers I have configured.
time.nist.gov
time.windows.com

Sometimes time.nist.gov shows correctly under NTP.

    I was worried about where all the OpenVPN traffic was coming from - knowing that I wasn't using it. - especially when there was a lot of strangely named entries (turned out to be from the us.pool.ntp.org entry.

    So not sure if this is normal or a bug [:D]

    I did not think the NTP client would make the requests via OpenVPN connection -especially since sometimes it shows under the correct classification.
