Does anyone know how to restrict NTP mode 6 queries on a Cisco ISR 4431 router? Any help would help appreciated. This is in response to potential UDP-based Amplification attacks.

ip access-list extended NTP
permit ip host 10.1.1.1 any
permit ip any host 10.1.1.1
ntp access-group serve-only NTP

we added the following to the config and it mitigates the vulnerability :

ntp allow mode control 3
