69.How to configure Network file system version 4 (NFSv4) client?
Ans.
1. There are two new options listed in NFSv4 are introduced as: clientaddr and ports

 2. The version 3 of NFS introduced NFS over TCP, which improved NFS’s reliability.

 3. In NFSv3, users use the mount option i.e., tcp as client whether client wants to use TCP or UDP to communicate with the server.
NFSv4 replaces tcp or udp with a single option i.e. ports=tcp or udp

 4. The default buffer size for NFSv4 is 8192 bytes, but it can grow to as large and by 32,678 bytes, which results performance improvements.

 5. Following are the mount options:
clientaddr=n – Declares client to be multihomed
proto=type – Declares port as either udp or tcp
resize=n – declares read size of clients buffer
wsize=n – Declares write size of clients buffer
sec=mod – Declares security model as either krb, krb5 etc.

Explain process of setting up a NIC (Network interface card).

By
44.Explain process of setting up a NIC (Network interface card). Ans. 1. Network interface card (NIC) can be set-up by configuring the network card and internal network. 2. Before configuring network card we must check loopback (IP address 127.0.0.1) is working. 3. Even if the compute is not connected to outside network internet network configuration is required for some applications. This address is known as loopback device, and its IP address is 127.0.0.1 4. To check loopback device is configured or not, we use ‘ifconfig’ command it shows a device called ‘lo’ with the address 127.0.0.1, if this device and address is not shown there then loopback is not configured. 5. To configure it we can use command ifconfig lo 127.0.0.1 after that we need to use the ‘route’ command to give system a little more information about this interface for this ‘route add –net 127.0.0.0’ command is used, after this loopback is setup. 6. To configure a network card we will use ifconfig co...
