What is the difference between the Network Resource Name and the Online Linkage (8.10) data element?

The Network Resource Name is the name of the file or service from which the data set can be obtained from a distributor. Different distributors that provide online access to a data set probably would do so from different sites. The Online Linkage is the name of the file or service maintained by the originator (when used with "Citation" (1.1)) or the name of the file or service from which the data set was obtained (when used with "Source Citation" (2.5.5.1)).
