Network Isolation

  • Use dedicated VLANs for NFS traffic.

  • Configure firewall rules to restrict access.

  • Never expose NFS to untrusted networks.

SELinux

Keep SELinux enabled and configure appropriate booleans:

# List NFS-related booleans
getsebool -a | grep nfs

# Set as needed
sudo setsebool -P use_nfs_home_dirs 1
