Hi,

I am currently using Routersim Network Visualizer 4.0 and while doing Lab 4.12: Serial Interface Commands, I was not able to specify the clock rate. May I know how do I set to DCE interface in Routersim? Thanks

Router#config t
Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CTRL/Z.
Router(config)#int s0/0
Router(config-if)#clock rate 64000
Router(config-if)#int s0/1
Router(config-if)#clock rate 64000
%Error: This command applies only to DCE interfaces

* If you are not on an interface that is set to DCE than you will receive an error when trying this command.

DCE is a function of the cable pinout. The DCE end of the cable usually has a set of looped or grounded pins that tell the cable type and interface clocking specs.

Your sim either has a bad diagram or the other side is supposed to be DCE.

Right Click on the Router and then right click on the Serial Port. It will prompt you to specify either DTE or DCE.

check the serial interface to find out whether it is DCE or DTE with this command
show controllers serial 0/1
