[2] Configure NFS mounting on fstab to mount it when the system boots.
www:~ #
vi /etc/fstab
# add NFS mount's settings to the end

dlp.srv.world:/home /home                     nfs     defaults 0 0
[3] Configure auto-mounting. For example, set NFS directory on /mntdir.
www:~ #
zypper -n install autofs
www:~ #
vi /etc/auto.master
# add follows to the end

/-    /etc/auto.mount
www:~ #
vi /etc/auto.mount
# create new : [mount point] [option] [location]

/mntdir -fstype=nfs,rw  dlp.srv.world:/home
www:~ #
mkdir /mntdir

www:~ #
systemctl start autofs

www:~ #
systemctl enable autofs

# move to the mount point to make sure it normally mounted

www:~ #
cd /mntdir

www:/mntdir #
ll
