Syntax Description
Specifies that the clock is generated from the internal clock of the T1 or E1 controller. The
default is internal.
When configuring clocking on a serial link, you need to configure one end to be
internal
and the other end to be
line
. If you configure
internal
clocking on both
ends of a connection, framing slips occur. If you configure
line
clocking on both
ends of a connection, the line does not come up.
Note
internal
Specifies that the clock on this controller derives its clocking from the external source to
which the controller is connected, which is generally the telephone company central office
(CO).
