ntp - Linux ntpd leap second preparation

There will be a leap second on June 30, 2015 at 23:59:60 UTC.



I have a Linux based stratum 1 NTP server which uses GPS as a reference clock. The server is using the "default" ntp.org ntpd.



How should I prepare for the leap second to ensure that the correct time is available at and after the leap second?



Will the ntpd server behave correctly?




If uncertain, is there a way to test this beforehand?
