RHEL7-based kernels support [https://www.centos.org/docs/5/html/Deployment_Guide-en-US/ch-nfs.html three different NFS protocol versions]:
NFS version 2 (NFSv2) is older and is widely supported.
NFS version 3 (NFSv3) has more features, including 64bit file handles, Safe Async writes and more robust error handling.
NFS version 4 (NFSv4) works through firewalls and on the Internet, no longer requires portmapper, supports ACLs, and utilizes stateful operations.
Red Hat Enterprise Linux supports NFSv2, NFSv3, and NFSv4 clients, and when mounting a file system via NFS, Red Hat Enterprise Linux uses NFSv3 by default, if the server supports it.
