some routers you can use a show controller serial x and see the clocks detected -Original Message- From: Marakalas [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: 08 January 2003 13:00 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Checking clocking speed on routers [7:60591] Hi All, How does one check the clocking that is provided by the telecommunications company to me.

Some higher-end multimeters and wiring testers have frequency counters. You can use a standalone frequency/pulse counter. Otherwise, I'd use an oscilloscope, with the caveat I know what the pulse train is supposed to look like. I am assuming here that you are talking about physical clock rate on a DSU, not throughput rate. That's a different problem.

Re: Checking clocking speed on routers [7:60591]
You need to check the clock coming out of the CSU with a frequency counter or you can use a scope if you can do the conversion. Make sure you are not confusing 512Kb line with a 128kb data throughput.

If you have a fractional T1 and have the channels misconfigured, your configured for 8 and the provider has provisioned only 2, (128) it will not work. If frame relay and your provider allows it, enable the default LMI type and you will see the bandwidth in the show frame pvc command compliants of your LMI full status update. Dave Howard C.

In addition to the other suggestions, I find Fireberd or T-berd test sets to be far more common than frequency counters these days (or even cheap little hand-held BER test sets). Plugging in the appropriate module and configuring the test set for recovered or "interface" clock will tell you what the line rate is. > > Marakalas > > __ > Do you Yahoo!? > Yahoo!

If we're talkin Frame relay CIR a phone call to telco is sometimes necessary. CIR will often be 50-75% of the purchased bw.

Re: Checking clocking speed on routers [7:60591]
I wonder if he really meant to ask about clocking? The language sounds like he may have meant one or the other of these: 1) Bandwidth (capacity), in which case he could ask the provider (again!?) and, if it's Frame Relay, maybe see the bandwidth by using the "show frame pvc" command. 2) Throughput, in which case it must be measured with tools like TCP Test (TCPT) and others.

Priscilla Oppenheimer wrote: > > I wonder if he really meant to ask about clocking? Good point. Sometimes the CSU is not CPE but rather telco-provided. If you buy a fracitonal service and just stick a router on it on blind faith, you have no idea how many timeslots were activated in the T1/E1. But your FR scenario sounds much more likely. >The language > sounds like he may have meant one or the other of these: > > 1) Bandwidth (capacity), in which case he could ask the > provider (again!?) and, if it's Frame Relay, maybe see the > bandwidth by using the "show frame pvc" command. > > 2) Throughput, in which case it must be measured with tools > like TCP Test (TCPT) and others. > > Priscilla > > > Howard C.
