For example, you might enter /mnt/floppy /mnt/cdrom. It is also possible to enter a directory like /mnt to allow access to all filesystems under it.
Change the Can add new filesystems? field to No.
Change the Only allow mounting and unmounting? field to Yes, so that the user cannot actually edit filesystem details.
