An Internet Draft titled "Towards Remote Procedure Call Encryption By Default"
(soon to be an RFC I think) describes how Sun RPC is to use TLS with NFS
as a specific application case.
Various commits prepared the NFS code to use KERN_TLS, mainly enabling use
of ext_pgs mbufs for large RPC messages.
r364475 added TLS support to the kernel RPC.
This commit (which is the final one for kernel changes required to do
NFS over TLS) adds support for three export flags:
MNT_EXTLS - Requires a TLS connection.
MNT_EXTLSCERT - Requires a TLS connection where the client presents a valid
X.509 certificate during TLS handshake.
MNT_EXTLSCERTUSER - Requires a TLS connection where the client presents a
valid X.509 certificate with "user@domain" in the otherName
field of the SubjectAltName during TLS handshake.
Without these export options, clients are permitted, but not required, to
use TLS.
For the client, a new nmount(2) option called "tls" makes the client do
a STARTTLS Null RPC and TLS handshake for all TCP connections used for the
mount. The CLSET_TLS client control option is used to indicate to the kernel RPC
that this should be done.
Unless the above export flags or "tls" option is used, semantics should
not change for the NFS client nor server.
For NFS over TLS to work, the userspace daemons rpctlscd(8) { for client }
or rpctlssd(8) daemon { for server } must be running.

FreeBSD is an operating system used to power modern servers, desktops, and embedded platforms. A large community has continually developed it for more than thirty years. Its advanced networking, security, and storage features have made FreeBSD the platform of choice for many of the busiest web sites and most pervasive embedded networking and storage devices.
