clock rate is normally omitted if your router's DTE interface is connected to a CSU/DSU since the modem will provide the clock rate information. However if you are in a lab scenario whereby you are simulating a Wan by connecting your DTE to your DCE using two Cisco cables then at the DCE end you have to provide the clock rate in order that your serial interface can be up and running.
 
 
However , bandwidth needs to be supplied no matter you are in lab or practical environments because things like reliability , load etc depends on it to work. Hope that helps

What is the diference between the "clock rate" command and the "bandwidth" command?
 
Thanks
