Configuring the System as an Authoritative NTP Server
You can configure the router to act as an authoritative NTP server, even if the system is not synchronized to
an outside time source.
Note No specific command enables NTP; the first NTP configuration command that you issue enables NTP.

Saves configuration changes.
• When you issue the end command, the system prompts you to commit
changes:
Uncommitted changes found, commit them before
exiting(yes/no/cancel)?
[cancel]:
◦ Entering yes saves configuration changes to the running
configuration file, exits the configuration session, and returns the
router to EXEC mode.
◦ Entering no exits the configuration session and returns the router
to EXEC mode without committing the configuration changes.
◦ Entering cancel leaves the router in the current configuration session
without exiting or committing the configuration changes.
• Use the commit command to save the configuration changes to the
running configuration file and remain within the configuration session.
