Details
NFS (Network File System) is a protocol to access remote filesstems.
It is the Linux equivalent to the Windows SMB protocol.
There are 3 popular versions of this protocol, NFSv2, NFSv3 and NFSv4.
- NFSv2 is defined in RFC-1094 (1989)
- NFSv3 is defined in RFC-1813 (1995)
- NFSv4 is defined in RFC-3530 (2003) and RFC-7530 (2015)
For NFSv2 and NFSv3 a client contacts a portmapper on Port-111-udp or Port-111-tcp which provides an arbitary
(typically UDP) port for subsequent communication.
For NFSv4 all client communication goes through Port-2049-tcp, which simplifies usage through firewalls.
FRITZ!OS
Since AVM mainly targets the Windows market there's no access to Fritzbox ressources by NFS in favor of SMB.
However, in few cases NFS is used internally for Inter-CPU mounting on models which run multiple Linux instances.
- NFS was used in the VoIP Gateway 5188 to mount the rootfs of the first AR7 to the second AR7.
- NFS was used in early 6490 firmware to mount ATOM ressources to the ARM, see the nfs4 article.
