Synchronous Serial Port Setup Commands

Synchronous Serial Port Setup Commands

This chapter describes the function and displays the syntax for the commands to configure synchronous serial interfaces for dial-up solutions. For more information about defaults and usage guidelines, see the corresponding chapter of the Dial Solutions Command Reference.

bandwidth

To communicate the bandwidth value of an interface to the higher-level protocols, use the bandwidth interface configuration command. Use the no form of this command to restore the default values.

bandwidth kilobits
no bandwidth


kilobits Intended bandwidth in kilobits per second.

clock rate

Use the clock rate interface configuration command to configure the clock rate for the hardware connections on serial interfaces such as network interface modules (NIMs) and interface processors to an acceptable bit rate. Use the no form of this command to remove the clock rate if you change the interface from a DCE to a DTE device. Using the no form of this command on a DCE interface sets the clock rate to the hardware-dependent default value.

clock rate bps
no clock rate


bps Desired clock rate in bits per second: 1200, 2400, 4800, 9600, 19200, 38400, 56000, 64000, 72000, 125000, 148000, 250000, 500000, 800000, 1000000, 1300000, 2000000, 4000000, or 8000000.

For the synchronous serial port adapters (PA-8T-V35, PA-8T-X21, PA-8T-232, and PA-4T+), a nonstandard clock rate can be used. You can enter any value from 300 to 8000000 bps. The clock rate you enter is rounded (adjusted), if necessary, to the nearest value your hardware can support except for the following standard rates: 1200, 2400, 4800, 9600, 14400, 19200, 28800, 38400, 56000, 64000, 128000, or 2015232.

clock source (interface)

To control which clock a G.703 E1 interface will use to clock its transmitted data, use the clock source interface configuration command. Use the no form of this command to restore the default value.

clock source {line | internal}
no clock source


line Specifies that the interface will clock its transmitted data from a clock recovered from the line's receive data stream (default).
internal Specifies that the interface will clock its transmitted data from its internal clock.

compress

To configure software compression for Link Access Procedure, Balanced (LAPB), and High-Level Data Link Control (HDLC) encapsulations, use the compress interface configuration command. To disable compression, use the no form of this command.

compress [predictor | stac]
no compress
[predictor | stac]

predictor (Optional) Specifies that a predictor compression algorithm will be used.
stac (Optional) Specifies that a Stacker (LZS) compression algorithm will be used.

crc4

To enable generation of CRC4 on the G.703 E1 port adapter on the FSIP, use the crc4 interface configuration command. To disable this feature, use the no form of this command.

crc4
no crc4

crc bits 5

To enable generation of CRC5 (per ITU Recommendation G.704 and G.703) to improve data integrity, use the crc bits 5 interface configuration command. To disable this feature, use the no form of this command.

crc bits 5
no crc bits 5

dce-terminal-timing enable

When running the line at high speeds and long distances, use the dce-terminal-timing enable interface configuration command to prevent phase shifting of the data with respect to the clock. If SCTE is not available from the DTE, use no form of this command, which causes the DCE to use its own clock instead of SCTE from the DTE.

dce-terminal-timing enable
no dce-terminal-timing enable

description (interface)

To add a description to an interface configuration, use the description interface configuration command. Use the no form of this command to remove the description.

description string
no description


string Comment or a description to help you remember what is attached to this interface.

dte-invert-txc

On the Cisco 4000 series, you can specify the serial Network Processor Module timing signal configuration. When the board is operating as a DTE, the dte-invert-txc command inverts the TXC clock signal it gets from the DCE that the DTE uses to transmit data. Use the no form of this command if the DCE accepts SCTE from the DTE.

dte-invert-txc
no dte-invert-txc

encapsulation

To set the encapsulation method used by a serial interface, use the encapsulation interface configuration command.

encapsulation encapsulation-type

encapsulation-type Encapsulation type; one of the following keywords:

hdlc--High-Level Data Link Control (HDLC) protocol for serial interface. This encapsulation method provides the synchronous framing and error detection functions of HDLC without windowing or retransmission. This is the default.

ppp--Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP) (for serial interface).

ignore-dcd

Use the ignore-dcd interface configuration command to configure the serial interface to monitor the DSR signal (instead of the DCD signal) as the line up/down indicator. Use the no form of this command to restore the default behavior.

ignore-dcd
no ignore-dcd

invert txclock

Use the invert txclock interface configuration command to invert the transmit clock signal. To return to the transmit clock signal to its initial state, use the no form of this command.

invert txclock
no invert txclock

nrzi-encoding

Use the nrzi-encoding interface configuration command to enable nonreturn-to-zero inverted (NRZI) line-coding format. Use the no form of this command to disable this capability.

nrzi-encoding
no nrzi-encoding

nrzi-encoding [mark] (Cisco 7000 series routers with RSP7000, Cisco 7200 series routers, and
Cisco 7500 series routers)


mark (Optional) Specifies that NRZI mark encoding is required on the PA-8T and PA-4T+ synchronous serial port adapters on the Cisco 7000 series routers with RSP7000, Cisco 7200 and 7500 series routers. If mark is not specified, NRZI space encoding is used.

pulse-time

To enable pulsing DTR signal intervals on the serial interfaces, use the pulse-time interface configuration command. Use the no form of this command to restore the default interval.

pulse-time seconds
no pulse-time


seconds Integer that specifies the DTR signal interval in seconds.

timeslot

To enable framed mode serial interface on a G.703 E1 port adapter on an FSIP, use the timeslot interface configuration command. To restore the default, use the no form of this command or set the start slot to 0.

timeslot start-slot - stop-slot
no timeslot


start-slot The first subframe in the major frame. Range is 1 to 31 and must be less than or equal to stop-slot.
stop-slot The last subframe in the major frame. Range is 1 to 31 and must be greater than or equal to start-slot.

transmit-clock-internal

When a DTE does not return a transmit clock, use the transmit-clock-internal interface command to enable the internally generated clock on a serial interface on a Cisco 7000 series, Cisco 7200 series, or Cisco 7500 series. Use the no form of this command to disable the feature.

transmit-clock-internal
no transmit-clock-internal

transmitter-delay

To specify a minimum dead-time after transmitting a packet, use the transmitter-delay interface configuration command. The no form of this command restores the default.

transmitter-delay delay
no transmitter-delay


delay On the FSIP, HSSI, and on the IGS router, the minimum number of HDLC flags to be sent between successive packets. On all other serial interfaces and routers, approximate number of microseconds of minimum delay after transmitting a packet. The valid range is 0 to 131071.

ts16

To control the use of time slot 16 for data on a G.703 E1 interface, use the ts16 interface configuration command. To restore the default, use the no form of this command.

ts16
no ts16
