A network engineer wants to synchronize the time of a router with an NTP server at the IPv4 address 209.165.200.225. The exit interface of the router is configured with an IPv4 address of 192.168.212.11. Which global configuration command should be used to configure the NTP server as the time source for this router?
- ntp peer 209.165.200.225
- ntp server 192.168.212.11
- ntp server 209.165.200.225
- ntp peer 192.168.212.11
Explanation: The global configuration command ntp server server ip-address will set the server at that address as the time source for the router. The ntp peer command which enables a router to both update the time of another similarly configured router, and also synchronize with that router if necessary, is not appropriate in this case.
