As I explained in previous posts this is the normal case, but not the only case.

No, as stated previously automount on the server side does nothing, automounting is a client operation.

No, it means mapped, "on demand" mounting. The desktop idiom "folder", is generally not used in the Unix world. In the Solaris implementation mouting is a filesystem operation, not a file(directory) operation.
Automount uses maps, but the maps are the mapping, not the automount.
There is lots of information on
https://docs.sun.com about this, I think you would find it more useful to get the appropriate documents and work through the examples in them to understand how this works.
