10.10.49.180:/vol/test_vol/qtree1

snapshot: test_snap

exportfs -p sec=sys,rw=<>,root=<> /vol/test_vol/.snapshot/test_snap/qtree1

I am not aware of any way doing it with NFS (with CIFS it may be possible to define share with this path). If you have FlexClone license, you can clone snapshot and mount resulting FlexClone volume to get access to it.
