Modifying a WAN Link
The linkmodify command is used to modify the parameters of an existing WAN Link. Different
parameters will be displayed by the command based on the type of link. The first subhead-
ing (Modifying ISDN Links) below shows the sequence of screens when modifying a link over
a WSX port. The second subheading below (Modifying WSX Links on page 31-10) shows the
sequence of screens when modifying a link over an ISDN port.
Note
The Slot and Port fields in an existing WAN Link record
cannot be modified. To change them, you must delete
the record then create a new record.
Modifying ISDN Links
1. To modify a WAN Link, you must enter its Link Index with the command. For example, to
modify Link Index 1 which uses ISDN, you would enter the following command:
linkmodify L1
