No, you shouldn't have to do any such thing.  Just make sure you have set up 
in your '/etc/portage/repos.conf/gentoo.conf' the correct rsync mirror and 
commented out the server on the Internet;  e.g.:

[snip ...]

sync-type = rsync
#sync-uri = rsync://rsync.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage
sync-uri = rsync://192.168.1.252/gentoo-portage
