NFS Export Option Defaults

When you create a file system and export, the NFS export options for that file system are set to the following defaults, which allow full access for all NFS client source connections. These defaults must be changed if you want to restrict access:

Note – When using the CLI to set the export options, if you set the options with an empty array (no options specified), the export is not accessible to any clients.
