2.52 define_sdlc_port
The define_sdlc_port command is used to define a new SDLC port or to modify an existing port.
Before issuing this command, you must define the DLC that this port uses.
You can modify an existing port only if it is not started. You cannot change the DLC used by an existing port; the
dlc_name specified when modifying an existing port must match the DLC that was specified on the initial definition
of the port.
For information about defining a port that will accept incoming calls, see Section 2.52.4, Incoming Calls.
