Why not post the configs? Electrons are cheap. Also state the exact model of the 2610 serial card. no shutdown? Bad netmasks? 255.255.255.252 is the convention here.

Hi, I have s0 (192.168.0.2 ) on R2505 and s0/0 (192.168.0.1 ) on R2610 and one DTE/DCE cable and I want to connect these 2 serial interfaces. I pluged in DTE on s0 and DCE on s0/0. I set up clockrate 56000 on s0/0. I tried to ping s0 from s0/0 but it doesn't work.



Where I made a mistake?

! R2505 int ser0 ip addr 192.168.0.2 255.255.255.252 ! or /24 if you like encapsulation hdlc no shut

! R2610 int ser0/0 ip addr 192.168.0.1 255.255.255.252 clockrate 56000 encapsulation hdlc no shut

sh int for both ints?

Thank you, Ivo.

I did everth> ! R2505

Hardware, I think. But as last resource upgrade the IOS, just to be sure.

Try also swapping the used interface on the 2505 from ser0 to ser1.
