Data Preparation
To configure a POS interface, you need the following data.
No. Data
1 Number of the POS interface on the switch
2 Link layer protocol of the POS interface
3 Clock mode of the POS interface
4 Values of overload bytes C2, J0, and J1
5 Frame format of the POS interface
6 Length of the CRC check character
7 MTU of the POS interface
8 Alarm threshold of the POS interface
1.3.2 Configuring the Link-Layer Protocol on the POS Interface
The link-layer protocol on the POS interface can be PPP or HDLC.
Procedure
Step 1 Run:
system-view
The system view is displayed.
Step 2 Run:
interface pos interface-number
The POS interface view is displayed.
Step 3 Run:
link-protocol { ppp | hdlc }
The link-layer protocol is configured for the POS interface.
By default, the POS interface uses the Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP) as the link-layer protocol.

1.3.3 Configuring Clock Mode
A POS interface works in either master clock mode or slave clock mode. You need to configure
different clock modes for POS interfaces that function as the DTE device and the DCE device.
Context
A POS interface supports the following clock modes:
l Master clock mode: uses internal clock signal.
