Answer 1

You should provide correct parameter name in action link and there is no need to specify parameters here :)

@{
foreach (string str in ViewBag.ServerNames)
{
    <ul> 
     <img src="../../Content/Images/my_computer.png" alt="Computer Name"/>
        <li >@Html.ActionLink(str.ToString(),"Index","Customer",
        new{conName= str.ToString()} , null)</li>
    </ul>

}

Answer 2

If you are using MVC out of the box then it is only likely to work with a parameter called id that accepts an int. To make this work you need to explicitly define the parameter in the URL as below:

<a href="/Customer/Index/?conName=trakman_Entities">trakman_Entities</a>
