Since Lustre 2.9 it is possible to use the "nodemap" feature to limit
the access client nodes with specific NIDs.

If you want stronger authentication than just the client addresses,
then you can also use Shared Secret Key or Kerberos to identify the
clients from their crypto key or Kerberos ticket.  Unidentified clients
can be blocked from accessing the filesystem.
