Explanation

NetApp storage systems support simultaneous use of CIFS, FCP, and NFS, enabling multiprotocol access for both file and block workloads on the same system.

Common mistakes.

  • A. DAFS (Direct Access File System) was a short-lived network file protocol proposal that never achieved broad adoption and is not a standard supported protocol on NetApp systems.
  • C. DFS (Distributed File System) is a Microsoft namespace and replication feature built on top of SMB/CIFS - it is not an independent storage protocol that resides on the NetApp system itself.

Concept tested. NetApp multiprotocol coexistence CIFS NFS FCP
