WAN INTERFACE CONFIGRATION


WAN Interface Configuration


The first step to establish the WAN connection is to configure the Serial (WAN) interface.
By default the serial interface on the Router does not have IP address, encapsulation is HDLC and the interface is in shutdown state.
Note: To check the DTE or DCE interface, so that the clock rate can be configured on the DCE interface.
Syntax:
Router#show controllers serial <no>
Output:
Router#show controllers serial0/0/0
Interface Serial0/0/0

The following are the commands to assign IP, encapsulation & enable the serial port:
Syntax:
Router(config)#interface serial <no>
Router(config-if)#ip address <ip> <mask>
Router(config-if)#encapsulation <ppp> or <hdlc>
Router(config-if)#clockrate <bandwidth>
Router(config-if)#no shutdown



WAN CONFIGRATION EXAMPLE:-

ON DELHI:-

DELHI #configure terminal
DELHI(config) #interface serial 0
DELHI(config-if)#ip address 172.16.0.1 255.255.0.0
DELHI(config-if) #no shutdown
DELHI(config-if) #encapsulation hdlc
DELHI(config-if) #exit
DELHI(config) #exit
DELHI#
  
ON KOLKATA:-

KOLKATA #configure terminal
KOLKATA(config) #interface serial 0
KOLKATA(config-if)#ip address 172.16.0.2 255.255.0.0
KOLKATA(config-if) #no shutdown
KOLKATA(config-if) #encapsulation hdlc
KOLKATA(config-if) #clock rate 64000
KOLKATA(config) #exit
KOLKATA(config) #interface serial 1
KOLKATA(config-if)#ip address 172.17.0.1 255.255.0.0
KOLKATA(config-if) #no shutdown
KOLKATA(config-if) #encapsulation hdlc
KOLKATA(config-if) #clock rate 64000
KOLKATA(config) #exit
KOLKATA #
ON MUMBAI:-

MUMBAI#configure terminal
MUMBAI(config) #interface serial 0
MUMBAI(config-if)#ip address 172.17.0.2 255.255.0.0
MUMBAI(config-if) #no shutdown
MUMBAI(config-if) #encapsulation hdlc
MUMBAI(config-if) #exit
MUMBAI(config) #exit
MUMBAI#
To Verify, the following commands can be give on all Routers :-

Router#show controllers serial <number>
Router#show interface serial <number>


Check the serial interface connectivity
Syntax:

Router#show interface serial <no>
Output:-
Kolkata#show interfaces serial 0/0/0

Serial0/0/0 is up, line protocol is down (disabled)
Hardware is HD64570
Internet address is 172.16.0.2/16
MTU 1500 bytes, BW 1544 Kbit, DLY 20000 usec,
reliability 255/255, txload 1/255, rxload 1/255
Encapsulation HDLC, loopback not set, keepalive set (10 sec)
Last input never, output never, output hang never
Last clearing of "show interface" counters never
Input queue: 0/75/0 (size/max/drops); Total output drops: 0
Queueing strategy: weighted fair
Output queue: 0/1000/64/0 (size/max total/threshold/drops)
Conversations  0/0/256 (active/max active/max total)
Reserved Conversations 0/0 (allocated/max allocated)
Available Bandwidth 1158 kilobits/sec
5 minute input rate 0 bits/sec, 0 packets/sec
5 minute output rate 0 bits/sec, 0 packets/sec
0 packets input, 0 bytes, 0 no buffer
Received 0 broadcasts, 0 runts, 0 giants, 0 throttles
0 input errors, 0 CRC, 0 frame, 0 overrun, 0 ignored, 0 abort
0 packets output, 0 bytes, 0 underruns
0 output errors, 0 collisions, 2 interface resets
0 output buffer failures, 0 output buffers swapped out
0 carrier transitions
DCD=up  DSR=up  DTR=up  RTS=up  CTS=up
From the output, the first line indicates the status of the serial interface, there are 4 different states:
<!--[if !supportLists]
1.      Serial 0/0 is up, line protocol is up
            (Layer 1 & Layer 2 Connectivity and configuration is fine)
2.      Serial 0/0 is administratively down, line protocol is down
                 (No Shutdown has to be given on the local router serial interface)
3.     Serial 0/0 is up, line protocol is down
             (Encapsulation mismatch, clock rate has not been given on the DCE                
              interface or Lease Line problem)
4.      Serial 0/0 is down, line protocol is down
(Problem with the v.35 cable, csu/dsu or 'no shutdown' has not been given on the remote Router)
