Fields 

Link name             Make sure this is the same link name configured at
                      the Token Ring Link Configuration screen (#87)
                      (path name LINK). Press the [Save Data] function
                      key to save the link name in the configuration
                      file.  Verify that the link name has been
                      configured by checking that the Data flag is set to
                      Y.

                      This screen associates the link data with the token
                      ring network interface data.  The link name is used
                      by the network transport when establishing
                      connections.  The link name can contain as many as
                      eight alphanumeric characters and the first
                      character must be alphabetic.

                      To change an existing link name, enter the new name
                      in the Link name field and press the [Save Data]
                      function key.
