A network engineer is configuring a Cisco IOS router named Edge-R1 to operate as an NTP client. The router must synchronize its system clock with an upstream central NTP server at IP address 10.45.1.1. Additionally, organizational security policy dictates that all outgoing NTP packets must originate specifically from the router's Loopback0 interface rather than the physical egress interface. Which two global configuration commands must be configured on Edge-R1 to fulfill these operational requirements?
- ntp server 10.45.1.1Cevap
- Bip helper-address 10.45.1.1
- ntp source Loopback0Cevap
- Dntp master 16
Cevap
The two correct global configuration commands are 'ntp server 10.45.1.1' to identify the time server and 'ntp source Loopback0' to force NTP packets to use the specified interface address.
To establish NTP synchronization with an external time source, the command 'ntp server 10.45.1.1' is required to specify the remote NTP server IP address. Additionally, enforcing that all NTP control traffic originates from a designated logical interface requires the global command 'ntp source Loopback0'.
