Site Links

The Site Links page lists the links defined in the site topology. A link can connect two sites, or it can connect a site to an MPLS network cloud (see “Network Clouds” on page 102).

Use the commands in the Actions list to add, edit, or delete a site link. See “Add/Edit Site Link Dialog Box” on page 392 for a description of the fields in the site list.
