Describe the issue: 

Currently we have a section in NFS GANESHA to configure firewalld to add required ports.

We need the firewalld settings for GNFS too.
So either make the client firewalld settings global for GNFS and NFS-Ganesha.Or add a seperate section in GNFS for client side firewalld port configuration


Following ports needs to be added in client side for GNFS


On the GNFS-Clinet machine, configure firewalld to add ports used by statd, nlm and portmapper services by executing the following commands:

    # firewall-cmd --zone=public --add-port=662/tcp --add-port=662/udp \
    --add-port=32803/tcp --add-port=32769/udp \ --add-port=111/tcp --add-port=111/udp

    # firewall-cmd --zone=public --add-port=662/tcp --add-port=662/udp \
    --add-port=32803/tcp --add-port=32769/udp \ --add-port=111/tcp --add-port=111/udp --permanent 


Execute the following steps on the client machine:

    Edit '/etc/sysconfig/nfs' using following commands:

    # sed -i '/STATD_PORT/s/^#//' /etc/sysconfig/nfs


    Restart the services:
    For Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6:

    # service nfslock restart
    # service nfs restart

    For Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7:

    # systemctl restart nfs-config
    # systemctl restart rpc-statd
    # systemctl restart nfs-mountd
    # systemctl restart nfslock
