Dear Matt, I think the solution for You is not to look for the nfs command, You must create a route (see man route) to link the traffic to an IP-adress or subnet to a special nic.

I should have been more specific in my original post. The multiple NICs are on the NFS client. One NIC on the NFS client will be receiving HEAVY VoIP traffic and I want any NFS traffic to be offloaded to a separate NIC on the client, as shown: ________ ________ _| |_ | | |e| |e| | | VoIP |t| NFS |t| NFS | NFS | --------|h| Client |h|-------| Server | |0| |1| | | -|________|- |________| I'm looking for a way to tell the mount command on the NFS client which interface to use. It defaults to the first active interface. I can easily swap interfaces and IPs around in the box to meet my goal, but I was looking for a more flexible solution. I've read the pertinent man pages and the NFS section in my network administration guide but they make no mention of this. We are currently using NFS version 3.
