would be nice if netapp documented this somewhere. it's not in the man pages that came with my new 760/OT5.3.5R2. what is the syntax for configuring root access using subnets? is it the same as rw access:
/home -rw=123.456.789.0/24,root=123.456.789.0/24

Hi Jim!

Months ago, NetApp added a capability to use subnets to define root access(I think it was even in version 4.3.4R3). Not as flexible as netgroup, but an acceptable alternative that they informed us has much better performance. The netgroups can be scanned for mount priviledge, but writes could be slowed down by that kind of scan every time. The subnet check was quicker.
