GroupWise Link Configuration Tool

The GroupWise® Link Configuration Tool helps you manage the links between domains, post offices, and gateways in your GroupWise system. When you set up domains, post offices, and gateways, initial links are automatically created between them. These default links enable messages to flow through your GroupWise system without customized link configuration. However, more complex GroupWise systems require links to be modified.

Outbound Links Box
Displays links from the domain selected in the drop-down list to other domains in your GroupWise system. Double-click a domain to display and edit outbound link details. You can also drag a domain from one link type to another.

Inbound Links Box
Displays links from other domains in your GroupWise system to the domain selected in the drop-down list. Double-click a domain to display and edit inbound link details. You can also drag a domain from one link type to another.
