If yes how ?

Thanks in advance

Hi,

sure - open port 111 (sunrpc), 2049 (shilp) and high ports.

with nfsv4 a single port will do, by default its 2049.
many firewalls have ready-to-use profiles for nfs < v4.

port 111 UDP or TCP ?
what is shilp ?
high ports: not very secure for a firewall ?
Thanks for your help
