Applies to

  • ONTAP 9
  • NFSv4
  • NFSv3

Answer

  • NFS all versions support feature: Limiting port range between 1-1024 (mount-rootonly, nfs-rootonly)
  • NFSv4 unlike NFSv3, which used a series of ancillary protocols (e.g., NLM,NSM (Network Status Monitor), MOUNT), within all minor versions of NFSv4 a single RPC protocol is used to make requests to the server. Facilities that had been separate protocols, such as locking, are now integrated within a single unified protocol. (Only apply for NFS options: nfs-rootonly)
