You must konown only:
AIX supports both NFS Version 2 and Version 3 on the same machine
beginning with AIX 5.3, the operating system also supports NFS version 4.
You can user option vers=[2|3|4] when you mount
You can use option -V to export like exportfs -V [2|3|4]
Windows2008
You can use Services for NFS with UNIX computers which are running NFS client or
server software which complies with version 2 or version 3 of the NFS protocol.
(you can configure server as version only 2 but client work bath as version 2 and 3)
NFS Version 2 Protocol defined in RFC 1094
NFS Version 3 Protocol defined in RFC 1813
NFS Version 4 Protocol defined in RFC 3530

nfsmount.conf
NFSMOUNT.CONF(5) File Formats Manual NFSMOUNT.CONF(5)
NAME
nfsmount.conf - Configuration file for NFS mounts
SYNOPSIS
Configuration file for NFS mounts that allows options to be set globally, per server or per mount point.
DESCRIPTION
The configuration file is made up of multiple sections followed by variables associated with that section. A section is defined by a
string enclosed by [ and ] branches. Variables are assignment statements that assign values to particular variables using the = operator,
as in Proto=Tcp. The variables that can be assigned are exactly the set of NFS specific mount options listed in nfs(5).
Sections are broken up into three basic categories: Global options, Server options and Mount Point options.
[ NFSMount_Global_Options ] - This statically named section defines all of the global mount options that can be applied to every NFS mount.
[ Server "Server_Name" ] - This section defines all the mount options that should be used on mounts to a particular NFS server. The
"Server_Name" strings needs to be surrounded by '"' and be an exact match of the server name used in the mount command.
[ MountPoint "Mount_Point" ] - This section defines all the mount options that should be used on a particular mount point. The
"Mount_Point" string needs to be surrounded by '"' and be an exact match of the mount point used in the mount command.
EXAMPLES
These are some example lines of how sections and variables are defined in the configuration file.
[ NFSMount_Global_Options ]
Proto=Tcp
The TCP/IPv4 protocol will be used on every NFS mount.
[ Server "nfsserver.foo.com" ]
rsize=32k
wsize=32k
proto=udp6
A 32k (32768 bytes) block size will be used as the read and write size on all mounts to the 'nfsserver.foo.com' server. UDP/IPv6 is
the protocol to be used.
[ MountPoint "/export/home" ]
Background=True
All mounts to the '/export/home' export will be performed in the background (i.e. done asynchronously).
