[f-nsp] NTP panic mode on NetIron

[Frank Bulk]

In our situation the router ended being 21+ minutes off ... apparently stopped synching altogether.  Doesn't seem like a great feature.

There does not seem to be much documentation on what this
feature/conditions means. Totally guessing after some Googling around,
I think I understand panic mode to be a condition caused by the
devices inability to sync with a server via NTP. I think that when the
device enters this state, it increases the frequency with which it
will attempt to sync to an upstream NTP server. But again, a total
guess.
