Question
Refer to the exhibit. A security engineer views the health alerts in Cisco Secure Firewall Management Center by using the Health Monitor in the web interface. One of the alerts shows an appliance as critical because the Time Synchronization module status is out of sync. To troubleshoot the issue, the engineer runs the ntpq command in Secure Firewall Management Center. The output is shown in the exhibit. Which action must the security engineer take next to resolve the issue?
Exhibit
Options
- AConfigure the appliance to receive the time from an NTP server.
- BReestablish the connection to the timeserver.
- CReset the appliance with a hard reboot.
- DConfigure the appliance to sync with its own internal clock.

Explanation
In the exhibit, the output of ntpq -pn shows the NTP server 198.51.100.200 with a reach value of 0 and a reference ID of .INIT., meaning no successful synchronization has occurred. The reach value of 0 indicates that the appliance cannot reach the NTP server. Therefore, the issue is not with NTP configuration, but with network reachability to the timeserver. The next action is to reestablish the connection to the NTP server - this may involve checking routing, firewall rules, or server availability.
