Fields 

Link name             Make sure this is the same link name configured at
                      the X.25 Link Configuration screen (path name
                      LINK). This screen associates the link data with
                      the X.25 network interface data.  The link name can
                      contain as many as eight alphanumeric characters,
                      and the first character must be alphabetic.|

                      The link name is used by the network transport when
                      establishing connections.  You can associate up to 
                      twelve (12) links with a single X.25 NI. All links
                      associated with an NI have equal value (no primary
                      or secondary weightings are assigned).

New Name              (Required when renaming an existing X.25 link.)
                      Enter a link name.  This new link name is used in
                      place of the current link name for an existing link
                      configuration.  The name can contain as many as
                      eight alphanumeric characters, and the first
                      character must be alphabetic.
