If you don’t want to change the default HDLC encapsulation, then, in order to set up your WAN connection, you need only to do the following:
- Add an IP address to your interface
- Bring the interface up (with the no shut command)
- Ensure there is a clock rate on the DCE side
Here is the configuration if you have the DCE cable attached:
Router#config t
Router(config)#interface Serial0
Router(config-if)#ip address 192.168.1.1 255.255.255.0
Router(config-if)#clock rate . . .
