Explanation

When configuring NFS client host access, you must identify who the client is - and that requires both a Hostname (A) to identify the machine by name and a Network Address (D) to identify it by IP, ensuring the server can locate and authenticate the client on the network. Together, these two parameters form the complete host identity needed to grant NFS mount permissions.

Subnet access (B) describes a broader network-level permission scope (a range of IPs), not a parameter specific to a single host configuration - it's a different access model, not a host config field. Tenant information (C) is a cloud/multi-tenancy concept unrelated to traditional NFS configuration, which has no notion of tenants.

Memory tip: Think "Name it, Address it" - every host needs a name (Hostname) and an address (Network Address) to be uniquely identified in NFS client configuration.
