Q. How can I set up firewall rules to access NFS servers?
A. You need to allow the following network traffic through the firewall:
› portmapper (tcp and udp port 111)
› nfsd (tcp and udp 2049)
› mountd (variable port from portmapper)
Mountd is needed only when the NFS share is mounted. After the
mount is completed, all traffic is to the nfsd.
As the mountd port is not always the same, follow these instructions
to mount NFS shares:
› Either turn off the firewall, mount (or umount) the NFS share and
turn on the firewall again, or
› on the NFS server, start mountd with the --port PORT option,
which forces mountd to use a fixed port number instead of a
random port. Then, create a firewall rule that allows udp and tcp
traffic to that port number.
