The LINK_STATION_ROLE parameter defines the responsibility that the link station has for controlling the communication with its adjacent link stations. Valid values are:
NEGOTIABLE
When the connection is established, the local link station becomes either a primary or secondary link station.
PRIMARY
The primary link station controls the conversation on the link.
SECONDARY
The secondary link station must wait to be polled by the primary link station before data is sent.

This parameter is optional.

The default is NEGOTIABLE.

Note:
  1. If DLC_NAME is specified as TWINAX, only SECONDARY is valid.
  2. If DLC_NAME is specified as ANYNET, and LS_NAME on the LINK_STATION keyword is $ANYNET$, PRIMARY is not valid.
