You then need to enable it on a per-share basis. NOTE: The NSS only supports NFSv3. To set up global NFS access to the NSS: STEP 1 From the Manager Menu, click Shares NFS Setup.

STEP 3 To enable the optional asynchronous write option, click Use Asynchronous Writes. Asynchronous writes allow applications running on the NFS client to not block until write requests are complete on the NSS as they normally would. Instead they continue immediately after committing the write. This can improve performance if the NSS is heavily used. STEP 4 If asynchronous writes is enabled, you can enable aggregate write requests by selecting Aggregate Write Requests checkbox. When enabled, NFS write requests are "bulked" and sent in a batch. When disabled, the write requests are Cisco Small Business NSS2000 Series Administration Guide 109
