If non-NLSP devices, such as NetWare 2 servers, are operating on the
attached network and you want the router to accept and broadcast
SAP packets received from these devices, select
Auto .
Auto is the default state.

If you want to customize SAP operation further, configure one or more of
the following parameters:
IMPORTANT:
Because the default settings for these parameters are suitable for
most RIP-based IPX networks, you should change them only for a specific
purpose. Misconfiguring these parameters can increase routing traffic or cause
loss of connectivity on your network.
Š Get Nearest Server Requests Override —Determines whether the
router accepts or ignores SAP Get Nearest Server requests it receives
through this interface. Select one of the following options:
No Override —Do not override the global setting for the router. This
is the default state.
Ignore —Ignore Get Nearest Server requests received through this
interface.
Accept —Accept Get Nearest Server requests received through this
interface.
Š Periodic Update Interval —Measured in 30-second units, determines
the interval at which SAP packets are transmitted through this
interface. The default value is 2 (60 seconds).
Each router on the network segment to which this router is attached
must use the
same value for the Periodic Update Interval .
Š Aging Interval Multiplier —Controls how long the router keeps
service advertisements received through this interface. The product
of this parameter and the SAP Periodic Update Interval specifies
how long the router keeps service information from periodic SAP
updates received through an interface. This parameter is a holding
multiplier for the SAP Periodic Update Interval .
The default value for the Aging Interval Multiplier is 4. For
example, if SAP packets are sent every 60 seconds (Periodic Update
Interval equals 2), the router keeps the service information for 240
(60 x 4) seconds without refreshing it.
Each router on the network segment to which this router is attached
must use the
same value for the Aging Interval Multiplier .
