Configuring the baudrate
A DCE interface has to provide the signal clocks. The X.21 DCE interface can provide different baudrates on
its interface. The desired baudrate can be configured.
Note
The actual baudrate may differ from the baudrate you configured.
This procedure describes how to set the baudrate for the serial interface.
Mode:
Port serial
Example:
Configuring baudrate to 64,000 bps
The following example configures a baudrate of 64,000 bps on the serial interface. Verify that the command
show port serial detail 5
output displays the correct baudrate. True baudrate in the Status section shows the
baudrate of the selected hardware.
IPLink(cfg)#port serial 0 0
IPLink(prt-ser)[0/0]#transmit-data-on-edge negative
IPLink(prt-ser)[0/0]#show port serial detail 5
