configured.

approved USB vendors.

Mounting an NFS File System
This feature enables you to quickly access data on an NFS mounted file system. You can perform file
operations on an NFS mounted file system using supported file commands.
This feature allows an NFS mounted device to be recognized as a file system. This file system is visible on
the device and you can execute all file commands that are available on conventional file systems such as
a Flash file system.
Before executing any CLI command to perform file operations, you must first mount the NFS file system
to a mount-point on the device. Since multiple mount-points exist on a device, it is mandatory to specify
the mount-point to which you want to load the system. The /f10/mnt/nfsdirectory is the root of all
mount-points.
