I think the relevant section of The FreeBSD Handbook will be
a helpful resource. Especially read chapter 28.3.2. (Configuring

https://www.freebsd.org/doc/handbook/network-nfs.html

The command you provided is correct, but you need to enable
the NFS client functionality as explained in that chapter.
