While you can mount all of your clients to just one of these IP\naddresses, it is recommended to spread your clients over all six IP addresses\nto distribute the load they generate and achieve higher aggregated throughput.\nThe six IP addresses are provided within the volume export path or mount\ninstructions.\n\nOne approach is to set up round-robin DNS, where the same DNS name maps to\nall of the six IP addresses. Clients then use the DNS name to mount the volume.\nWhile the clients will be distributed across the six IP addresses, you can't\ncontrol which client connects to the same IP address.\n\n- For SMB access, NetApp Volumes automatically registers all\n six IP addresses under the volume's computer name in Active Directory DNS.\n SMB clients then look for the name when mapping the volume.\n\n- For NFS access, you have to manually create a DNS entry and add the six IP\n addresses to it. For more information about how to add a DNS record, see\n [Cloud DNS](/dns/docs/records#add_a_record). Note that NFS\n clients resolve the DNS name to an IP address during the mounting of the\n volume. To ensure that an NFS client picks up new settings from DNS, you need\n to remount the volume.\n\nAnother approach for NFS clients is to manually group the clients into six\ngroups, and mount each group of clients to one of the six IP addresses. This\napproach lets you control the exact group of clients that connect to a single\nIP address, which can be useful if you want to fine-tune the load-balancing.\n\nFor more information about large capacity volumes, see [About volumes](/netapp/volumes/docs/configure-and-use/volumes/overview).\n\nWhat's next\n-----------\n\n[Protect your data](/netapp/volumes/docs/protect-data/protect-your-data)."]]
