Our filers have been used in a large scale NTP reflection attack. I can not find any documentation on how to restrict or turn off monlist queries. options.timed doesn't seem to handle that part of the config
Any one have ideas?
Solved! See The Solution
Paraphrased from my support case,
Due to the way ONTAP works, there is no ntp.conf file and so the fix will have to be an ONTAP patch.

As a workaround either disable NTP until a fix is released, or block port 123/udp with a firewall.
I don't have the slightest. I would encourage you to call support immediately and report back to us.
What Data ONTAP version? In 8.x you should be able to edit ntp configuration in diag shell.
And yes, it should be reported as soon as possible.
I asked NetApp support this same question, and they opened a BURT, 787469. No big deal to me but sorry to hear your filer was misused.
BURT is not public ☹
