You can configure a static IPX SAP entry if you want to add an entry for an IPX server to
the IPX SAP table. The SAP agent broadcasts static IPX SAP entries only if an IPX interface
has learned the same service dynamically.
Note:
The IPX static SAP entries override dynamically learned entries, regardless of hop
count. Moreover, when a dynamic route associated with the SAP entry is deleted
or lost, the SSR does not advertise the IPX SAP entry until it relearns the route
entry.
To configure static IPX SAP entries:
1. Start Configuration Expert if you have not already done so.
2. Open the configuration file you want to modify and then double-click that file’s
Routing Configuration object.
3. Double-click the IPX Routing Configuration object.
4. Double-click the Static IPX SAP Configuration object. Then double-click the IPX SAP
Entries object.
5. In the list of IPX SAP entries that appears, click one of the following:
– An existing IPX SAP entry that you want to modify.
– The Configure New SAP Entries object. Select this object if you want to add a new
IPX SAP entry.
An SAP Entry dialog box similar to the following appears:
