# [OPTIONS](#OPTIONS)

-s --summary

Print a summary line at the end of output.

-R --recursive

Recursive listing of the specified URL.

-D --discovery;

This option is used to discover local NFS servers and to list the exports for specific servers.

When used with the 'nfs://' URL the command will try to detect all local NFS servers and will list their IPs.

When used with a 'nfs://server' the command will list all the exports on the specified server.

Example: Discover and list all local NFS servers

```
$ nfs-ls -D nfs://
nfs://10.10.10.10
nfs://10.0.0.10
	    
```

Example: List the exports for a server

```
$ nfs-ls -D nfs://10.10.10.10
nfs://10.10.10.10/foo
nfs://10.10.10.10/bar
