Auto 4wd Selection On Sierra Z71

I've posted some questions about full time 4WD (or AWD) on some smaller suvs, but I'm curious on the details on how the Auto 4wd works on my 08 sierra. I understand partime 4WD systems like the one my truck, as well as the options to commensate for open differnentials......like the rear locking diff on my sierra. So I'm fairly savy on this, but i don't really understand the auto 4WD mode on my selector. Is it just as simple as, if the truck (or computer senses slip) during Auto4WD mode is selected....it switches the truck into 4WD for that moment? My other more complicated theory is that everything is engaged except for the hubs....the truck feels slip...then the hubs lock? Always wanting to learn a bit more about these systems. Thanks ahead of time!
