Answer

  • No, ONTAP does not support TLS  for NFS
  • ONTAP supports encryption of HTTPS, FTPS, and LDAP over SSL (LDAPS) with TLS

Error: command failed: Cannot enable NFS over TLS because it is not supported on this platform.

This error indicates that NFS over TLS is not supported on the current platform
