+.BI "\-n," "" " \-\-name " name
+specify a name for
+.B rpc.statd
+to use as the local hostname. By default,
+.BR rpc.statd
+will call
+.BR gethostname (2)
+to get the local hostname. Specifying
+a local hostname may be useful for machines with more than one
+interfaces.
+.TP
+.BI "\-o," "" " \-\-outgoing\-port " port
+specify a port for
+.B rpc.statd
+to send outgoing status requests from. By default,
+.BR rpc.statd
+will ask
+.BR portmap (8)
+to assign it a port number. As of this writing, there is not
+a standard port number that
+.BR portmap
+always or usually assigns. Specifying
+a port may be useful when implementing a firewall.
+.TP
+.BI "\-p," "" " \-\-port " port
+specify a port for
+.B rpc.statd
+to listen on. By default,
+.BR rpc.statd
+will ask
+.BR portmap (8)
+to assign it a port number. As of this writing, there is not
+a standard port number that
+.BR portmap
+always or usually assigns. Specifying
+a port may be useful when implementing a firewall.
+.TP
+.BI "\-P," "" " \-\-state\-directory\-path " directory
+specify a directory in which to place statd state information.
+If this option is not specified the default of
+.BR /var/lib/nfs
+is used.
+.TP
+.B -N
+Causes statd to run in the notify-only mode. When started in this mode, the
+statd program will check its state directory, send notifications to any
+monitored nodes, and exit once the notifications have been sent. This mode is
+used to enable Highly Available NFS implementations (i.e. HA-NFS).
