Finding the RX clock on a Serial interface WAN. Is there any way of doing a show command that will show what clock rate a Serial interface is running. How can I check the traffic on a serial interface to be sure that it is not overloaded? I having an issue with an application not working over our WAN connecti. Show interface ser0/0 (or whatever the interface number is). Look for the following lines. Hardware is DSXPNM Serial Description: DS3 to Wilmington Internet address is 192.168. Sealevel asynchronous serial interfaces are designed for high-speed applications and support RS-232, RS-422, RS-485, and RS-530 electrical interface standards. Whether you choose a traditional bus-based approach or opt for easy-to-use USB or Ethernet solutions, you will be quickly communicating with your serial devices.

Figure 1. Cisco T3/E3 Network Module

Cisco's Packet-over-T3/E3 network module for the Cisco Integrated Services Routers series offers the first software-configurable T3/E3 product from Cisco. This flexible network module allows the customer to switch between T3 and E3 applications with a single Cisco IOS ® command. This feature provides customers increased flexibility and investment protection by allowing a Cisco Partner, service provider or enterprise customer to stock only a single product that can be deployed internationally.
The increased demand for bandwidth over the WAN and more attractive pricing of T3/E3 links by SPs has led to steady growth in T3/E3 deployments around the world. The Packet-over T3/E3 network module (part number NM-1T3/E3) eliminates the need for an external data service unit (DSU), reduces provisioning costs, and provides highly manageable T3/E3 line termination. The module provides an integrated line interface unit (LIU) DSU that allows T3 or E3 lines to be directly terminated on a Cisco router, eliminating the need for external DSU equipment. This simplifies the T3/E3 line management, reduces provisioning cost, and frees up valuable rack space.
The Cisco T3/E3 network modules provide support for the proprietary subrate and scrambling features of T3 DSU vendors such as Digital Link, Larscom, and ADC Kentrox. Subrate support in the Cisco T3/E3 Network Module maximizes the utility of these products in service provider environments By simultaneously supporting interoperability with a wide range of third-party DSU vendors, this network module offers the flexibility to support installed equipment without locking customers into a proprietary solution.
The Cisco T3/E3 Network Module provides direct connectivity to a T3 line for full-duplex communications at the T3 rate of 44.736 MHz and full-duplex E3 communications at 34.368 MHz. Each T3 or E3 port consists of a pair of 75-ohm BNC coaxial connectors (Type RG-59), one for transmit data and one for receive data, along with six LED indicators for line status. The Cisco T3/E3 Network Module is supported in all Cisco IOS feature sets, and there are no additional memory requirements.

Key Benefits

The combination of T3 and E3 options in a single network module provides the following key customer benefits:

Physical space savings: Eliminates the need for external DSU device, saving valuable rack space

Simplified management: Eliminates the need for two separate monitoring tools

Software-configurable T3/E3: Provides the flexibility to deploy a single module worldwide

Key Features Euro style regular font.

T3/E3 Applications and Positioning

The Cisco T3/E3 Network Module provides the performance requirements to deploy advanced, voice, video and data applications over the WAN and supports key IOS features and services such as QoS, NBAR, IPSec, FW, IDS, NAT and NetFlow. The Cisco 3945E, for instance, is the highest-performing platform for the branch office and is recommended for deploying concurrent services at full T3/E3 line rates. See Table 1 below for performance recommendation for positioning of the NM-1T3/E3 in the branch office.

We just switched over to a frac T3 (12 Meg) and i have noticed some errors on the interfaces..on the inside FA 0/0 int i see unknown protocol drops piling up and on the serial interface i see input and crc errors stacking up. The circuit has been up for about 20 hours and being a saturday it is getting very little use so i am concerned come Monday morning when the line really gets tested. below is the show conf and the show int.router is a 3725
