(2)AS5350s connected back to back over a V.35 cross cable. I believe the interface, serial 0/0, configuration is ok but it's not up so all suggestions are welcome. Here is a show status of the interface:

In the real world, I will be setting the interfaces up to work over a fractional T1 circuit. Questions I have are: should I be configured for PPP or HDLC or what? Also, How do I raise my DTR and RTS? A big thanks in advance.
