Don't know very deep about IPX, but will try my best;)
NLSP is the IPX routing protocol used in a large IPX networks, it has
advanced features than IPX RIP/SAP. In simple words, it replaces both
RIP and SAP. So when you turn snlsp on you want to turn both RIP and
SAP off. That is your first part.
You should use the second part when you have both IPX RIP and EIGRP
turned on since IPX RIP and EIGRP will retransmit each other by
default. You do not want to grnerate routing loop.
Hope this will help.
