Synchronous vs Asynchronous Serial Interfaces

[fedecotofaja]

Hi All,

I have a question about what's really the difference between a synchronous serial interface and a asynchronous serial interface on a router? When would you use one or the other and if the difference is physical or just in configuration.

Thank you!
