Question about MOP booting and Infoservers:

It is/was my understanding that when VMS serves a MOP request from
another VMS host, it appends extra information to the specificed load
file (such as the SYSGEN paremeters applicable to that architecture)

I don't remember how terminal server configs were stored. Were they on
non volatile memory on a server like DECserver 200 ? Or were they copied
back to the MOP host to be appended to the load file ? (I just realised
how far this info is for me , last time I played with a decserver was in
early 1990s).

When it comes to an Infoserver, does it provide the exact same
capabilities in terms of appending information to the load file served
by the MOP server ?
