+## Example: NetApp Files Volume Dual-Protocol (CIFS+NFSv3) enabled
+
+This example shows how to create an Azure NetApp Files Volume with dual protocol, CIFS and NFSv3.
+
+For more information, please refer to [Create a dual-protocol (NFSv3 and SMB) volume for Azure NetApp Files](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/azure-netapp-files/create-volumes-dual-protocol).
