One more possible issue. Recently I installed a back-to-back cable in my lab. On the DCE end I verified the cable: sh controllers s 0 - It showed DCE. I then configured the interface; config t int s0 clock rate 1300000 ip address no shut end The router returned an error message that seemed to indicate that it thought there wasn't a DCE cable on that interface. Now interface s1 was configured for a DCE cable and it worked just fine. OK, reload the router. no change Power off the router Now it works. IOS ver 11.3 on a 2514.
