in CCNA & CCENT
If I have three subnets, connect via a t1 line.

Subnet 1 10.0.2.X 255.255.255.0
Subnet 2 10.0.3.X
Subnet 3 10.0.4.X

The ethernet port IP adrress of each router in the subnets should be configure according to the subnet that the router is in.

Question:

What IP address should be assign to the the serials port of each router?

    Answer: An IP of a different subnet.

    Reason: Serial ports are a different interface, and therefore a different subnet.

    not really, depends on the purpose. you can configure just local LAN with any kind of interface including serial.

    ethernet = 1 shared media or paralel connection, shorter distance.
    serial = serial connection, longer distance.
    the More I know, that is more and More I dont know.

    as your wish ,but must not same with ethernet subnet.

    serial port is another interface of a router not the same port with ethernet
