Administrator Guide

– You can modify permissions or ownership to NFSv4 ACL on UNIX volumes. NFSv4 clients can transparently access UNIX/POSIX or
NTFS protected les. The accessing identity is translated and checked against the UNIX/POSIX or NTFS ACL metadata
(permissions and ownership), to verify access authorization.
– NFSv4 ACL-protected objects can analogously be accessed by NFSv3 and SMB clients.
• Single port conguration — NFSv4 communicates over TCP port 2049 only.
For detailed information about the Network File System (NFS) version 4 protocol, see RFC 7530.
