My read of your request is this....

You have a system for which WAN access is blocked.  So it can't contact an ntp server on outside of your LAN for time synchronization. 

In that case, *if* you have a local system server as a time source you need to set the "server" parameter in the config file to tell chronyd what time sources to contact.  If your router can also act as an ntp server you can point to it.
