How to modify template VMs and persist them to the VMs that depend on them?

I want to install packages, add files and do other modifications to my VMs but of course after reboot the changes are lost.

For starters I want to install ntpd service on either sys-net or sys-firewall for a windows 10 HVM because it can already talk to its template VM network without extra firewall configurations.

I figure I follow the VM dependency tree and update fedora-34 and they persist through reboot but these changes do not propagate. Do I need to run a command-line tool in dom0 to trigger an update to sys–net, sys-firewall?

win10 => sys-firewall => sys-net => fedora-34-dvm => fedora-34

thanks
