Configuring the serial encapsulation type
The synchronous serial interface supports the Frame Relay and PPP serial encapsulation method. For more
information how to configure Frame Relay and PPP, please see Chapter15,
page 175 and Chapter 30,
To set the encapsulation method used by a serial interface, use the
configuration command.
This procedure describes how to set the encapsulation type of the serial interface.
Mode: Administrator execution
Step
1 node(cfg)#port serial slot port
2 node(prt-ser)[slot/port]#[no] encapsulation
{framerelay | ppp}
3 node(prt-ser)[slot/port]#show port serial
Example: Configuring the serial encapsulation type
The following example enables Frame Relay encapsulation for the serial interface on slot 0 and port 0. Check
that in the command output of
node(cfg)#port serial 0 0
node(prt-ser)[0/0]#encapsulation framerelay
node(prt-ser)[0/0]#show port serial
