When a router is connected to a Frame Relay WAN link using a serial DTE interface, how is the clock rate determined?
A
Supplied by the CSU\/DSU
B
By the far end router
C
By the clock rate command
D
By the Physical layer bits stream timing
Correct Answer: Supplied by the CSU\/DSU
Clocking on a serial interface is always provided by the CSU/DSU (DCE device). However, if you do not have a CSU/DSU in your non-production test environment, then you need to supply clocking with the clock rate command on the serial interface of the router with the DCE cable attached.
