There can be a lot of reasons for the "Line protocol down"

1.   The cable connected from the router may be Bad.
2.   The CU is not sending the clock. Check whether all the pins such as
DCD, DSR, DTR,RTS,CTS are UP.
3.   There should be same config for Keepalive at both the ends. Either no
keepalive or keepalive set
4.   The encapsulation type should be same at both the ends.
5.   The cable is not connected at the remote end.

Waiting for your feedback

The router sees the packets with its own keepalive sequence numbers so
thats
why it knows that there is a loopback in place.

I'm doing this loopback test on the back side of interface, its aphysical
loop.
earlier I thought it could be because of different protocols being used at
the other end of the serial link.
thanks.
