 The command exportfs is used to configure which file systems a NFS server makes available to clients. The exportfs command maintains a table of exported file systems in the /etc/exports file, which specifies the directories to be shared and the options for each host or network. The exportfs command can also be used to add, remove, or refresh the exported file systems without restarting the NFS service123 References:

Sieve filters are usually applied to an email when the email is delivered to a mailbox by a mail delivery agent (MDA) or a local delivery agent (LDA). Sieve filters are scripts that can perform various actions on incoming emails, such as sorting them into folders, assigning labels, forwarding, rejecting, or discarding them. Sieve filters are executed on the server side, and they are independent of the mail user agent (MUA) or the mail access protocol. This means that the email filtering is consistent across different email clients and devices. Sieve filters are not applied when the email is relayed by an SMTP server, received by an SMTP smarthost, sent to the first server by an MUA, or retrieved by an MUA. These are different stages of the email delivery process, but they do not involve the final delivery of the email to a mailbox.

 DHCPv6 supports three types of IPv6 address assignments:

• Individual address assignment (IA_NA): This is the stateful mode of DHCPv6, where the DHCPv6 server assigns a normal IPv6 address to a client that can be renewed or released. The address is chosen from a pool of prefixes configured on the server and is unique and non-duplicate. The client can request one or more addresses using the IA_NA option in the DHCPv6 messages1
• Temporary address assignment (IA_TA): This is similar to the IA_NA mode, but the addresses assigned are temporary and cannot be renewed or released. The temporary addresses are used for privacy reasons and are generated by the client using a random interface identifier. The client can request one or more temporary addresses using the IA_TA option in the DHCPv6 messages2
• Prefix delegation (IA_PD): This is the mode where the DHCPv6 server delegates a whole IPv6 prefix to a client, such as a router or a host, that can use it for further subnetting or routing. The client can request one or more prefixes using the IA_PD option in the DHCPv6 messages. The delegated prefixes are also chosen from a pool of prefixes configured on the server3

 The options rw and ro are valid in /etc/exports. They specify whether the exported file system is mounted with read-write or read-only permissions by the clients. The option rw allows the clients to modify the files on the server, while the option ro prevents any changes by the clients. These options can be applied to all or specific hosts in the /etc/exports file123 References:
