NFS backwards compatibility

Hello!

I wanted to know if ESXi 6.5 supports NFS v4 (NOT v4.1).

When i try to connect ot my NFS v4 server (witch is Solaris 11.3) it gives me this error WARNING: NFS41: NFS41ExidNFSProcess:2053: Server doesn't support the NFS 4.1 protocol.

Can i somehow make it use v4 protocol? Or this is just a mistake in server configuration?
