CIFS: A file format for a NAS device.
o
NFS: A file format for a NAS device.
NOTE 1: Common Internet File System (CIFS) is a remote file access protocol that forms
the basis for Windows file sharing, network printing, and various other network
services. CIFS requires a large number of request/response transactions and its
performance degrades significantly over high-latency WAN links such as the
Internet.
NOTE 2: Network File System (NFS) is a network file system protocol, allowing a user on a
client computer to access files over a network like how local storage is accessed.
NFS, like many other protocols, builds on the Open Network Computing Remote
Procedure Call (ONC RPC) system.
The CIFS screen displays as below.
