RIP/SAP
IPX Triggered RIP/SAP is a type of broadcast protocol used over WAN circuits for router-to-router
exchange of route and service information. Its broadcasts are “triggered” by events such as updates
or changes to route and service tables. Triggered RIP/SAP offers an alternative to running periodic
broadcasts over the WAN, and is especially useful when you consider the costs of periodic
broadcasts over WAN links.
Triggered RIP and triggered SAP are user-configurable items which you enable in the on-node
device database (
). Under the Options Menu, IPX Routing, Triggered RIP/SAP, you can
display the devices already configured for these features (i.e., the WAN peer list), as well as
configure global timers (applicable to the RIP or SAP update packets).
