Azure file shares can be mounted in Linux distributions using the [SMB kernel client](https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/LinuxCIFS).

The recommended way to mount an Azure file share on Linux is using SMB 3.1.1. By default, Azure Files requires encryption in transit, which is supported by SMB 3.0+. Azure Files also supports SMB 2.1, which doesn't support encryption in transit, but you can't mount Azure file shares with SMB 2.1 from another Azure region or on-premises for security reasons. Unless your application specifically requires SMB 2.1, use SMB 3.1.1. SMB 2.1 support was added to Linux kernel version 3.7, so if you're using a version of the Linux kernel after 3.7, it should support SMB 2.1.
