Finding the RX clock on a Serial interface

[benediktsv]

Hi - this has been a mistery to me for a looong time.

Is there any way of doing a show command that will show what clock rate a Serial interface is running (PPP/HDLC/FR)

I have looked at show controllers s0 ..and show int s0

PPP/HDLC/FR are the encaps on a serial connection. If you are looking for this, this will show up in the running config under the controller or interface config (depending on the module you are using). The defaults will not be listed. For example, if you are using encap HDLC (cisco default), it will not show up in the running config even if you type it in.

Hope this helps.

No..

Okay..let's explain a little better..

Normally if you connect a Cisco router to a DCE like a modem etc. The clock is received from the DCE - right ? We usually use X.21 or V.35

is there any way of displaying the clock rate received from the DCE ?

Well, to list the encaps is irrelevant - as they are layer2 ..and have nothing to to with the physical interface. - sorry about that.

benni show controllers does show you the clock rate - i guess it depends on what ios version you aer using. If you are using an old variant then the only way to find the clock is by picking up the phone and asking your SP/Telco.

well.. here is a sh controllers from a Cisco 2811 running c2800nm-advipservicesk9-mz.123-11.T6.bin

I looked at 2620 with 12.2 now 2811 with 12.3T ...etc. and I can't figure this out.

But - this is not a operational issue .. I just like to know if this is possible.

(somethimes we have performance problems with telco - and it would be nice to see how they configure the interface)
