 command is used to add link configuration records, or “WAN Links” to the switch. 

This command defaults to a WSX physical port (serial or Fractional T1/E1). When the 

 

command is used to create links over WSX ports, all of the parameters needed to create the 
link are contained on one screen. However, when you select to create a link over an ISDN 
port, a second screen will be displayed after you enter and save the initial parameters on the 
first screen. 

The first subheading (Adding WSX Port Links) below shows the sequence of screens when 
creating a link over a WSX port. The second subheading below (Adding ISDN Call Links on 
page 31-4) shows the sequence of screens when creating a link over an ISDN port.
