Create an export option

To add a host or subnet for the exported path, select one of the following permissions for the host or subnet that can mount the path:

• root-to give root access to the host
• access-to give mount access to the host or net group
• rw-to give read-write access to the host

  NOTE: You can specify the access option for netgroups; root and rw options are only for hosts.

If the path is exported to a host or net group, enter the name of the host or net group.

If the path is exported to a subnet, you can select the ro, rw, or root option.

The subnet address is a dotted IP subnet address and a mask written in the following format:

dotted_ip/num_bits 

where dotted_ip can be an IP address ("a.b.c.d") or an IP subnet (a for a class A network, a.b for a class B network, or a.b.c for a class C network). The size of the subnet is specified by the number of leading bits of the netmask, num_bits.

Following are some examples of specifying the subnet:

• To export to all addresses of the form "123.45.67.x" with a netmask 255.255.255.0 (24 leading bits), enter 123.45.67.0/24 as the subnet address.
• To export to all addresses of the form "123.45.x.y" with a 16-bit netmask (255.255.0.0), enter 123.45.0.0/16.
