Hello mark,

You can't config a clock rate on a DTE cabled interface, it must be
configed on the DCE cabled interface. Anyway, just like allyn
wrote,the physical DCE or DTE has nothing with the interface type DCE
or DTE. For example, you connected two routers back to back through
serial interface, you must config the clock rate on the DCE cabled
side. But if you using frame relay encapsulation. you can config
"fram-relay intf-type dce" on either side, not just on the DCE cabled router.
