ONFIGURE SERIAL INTERFACE (V.35/X.21/RS-232)
In synchronous communications, data is sent as frames of sizes that vary from a
few bytes through 1500 bytes for Ethernet or 4096 bytes for most Frame Relay
systems. The clock is embedded in the data stream encoding, or provided on
separate clock lines such that the sender and receiver are always in
synchronization during a frame transmission.
There are two types of devices that communicate over a Serial Interface: DTE
(Data Terminal Equipment) and DCE (Data Circuit-Terminating Equipment).
A DTE connects to a network through a DCE device. In a typical scenario, a DTE
device is connected to a DCE device. The DCE device provides a clock signal that
paces the communication between the device and the router.
This page enables you to configure the parameters for a Serial Interface (V.35/
X.21/RS-232).
Follow the procedure below to configure Serial interface.
Step 1: In the Interfaces page, click Configure icon for the Serial interface
whose parameters are to be configured. This displays the Configuration Serial
page in the Center Panel.
