An administrator needs a router to distribute time information to other devices on the network by acting as an authoritative time source. Which command should be used to configure the router for this purpose?
The ntp master command configures the router to act as an authoritative NTP server, providing time synchronization to other devices. This command sets the router's stratum level and allows it to distribute time information. The ntp server [ip address] command configures the router as an NTP client that synchronizes its own time with an external server. The ntp peer [ip address] command establishes a peer relationship for time synchronization, but does not make the router an authoritative source. The ntp broadcast client command configures the router to receive NTP broadcast messages, not to send them as a server.
