How would you configure a new export policy for NFS access?

• A. Define an export policy, attach an allowed client list, and apply to a volume or LIF.
• B. Create an SMB share and assign Windows permissions.
• C. Enable iSCSI targets and map to a LUN.
• D. Create a volume and enable multiprotocol.

Answer: (A)

NFS access is controlled through export policies in NetApp. To enable NFS, you create an export policy that defines which clients are allowed to access the export (the allowed client list) and the access permissions, then attach that policy to the appropriate resource—either a volume or a LIF (logical interface). This linkage determines which NFS clients can mount the exported directory and with what rights.

So the best approach is to define an export policy, specify the allowed clients, and apply it to a volume or LIF. The other options don’t configure NFS exports: creating an SMB share is for Windows access, enabling iSCSI targets is for block storage, and simply creating a volume with multiprotocol doesn't establish an NFS export policy by itself.
