I may be WAY off here, but here is how I understand this.

For compatibility reasons--primarily on LAN interfaces--NLSP
sends IPX RIP/SAP updates every 60 seconds in addition to the
NLSP link state updates. This might be helpful if you have
NLSP running on a LAN link that includes servers or clients.

On a WAN link this is definitely not necessary but the RIP/SAP
updates still occur by default. You use ipx nlsp rip off and
sap off to disable those updates.

You may not want to remove a network entirely from IPX RIP and
if that's the case you'd need to use this knob to turn off
RIP/SAP updates on a particular link.

This is what I've gleaned from the list and from doing a little
reading. I could be way off base so you'll still want to
verify my info.
