information but the amount of dynamic service information. If the newly configured queue length is less
than the original length, the table items in the service information table will not be deleted; if the amount
of service information for the same service type reaches the configured value, new service information
items will not be added.

IPX RIP and SAP periodically broadcast updating packets. With the triggered updating feature enabled,
updating packets will be sent only upon route or service information changes, and flooding of
broadcasts can be avoided.
Split horizon can avoid routing loops—routing information received from an interface is not permitted to
be sent from the interface. In some cases, split horizon must be prohibited to ensure correct routing
information transmission. In addition, split horizon prohibition does not take effect on point-to-point links.
