Confirming That the Interface Is Receiving a Line Signal
You can verify that the interface is receiving a line signal by performing the
following steps:
Step 1 From the privileged EXEC command mode, enter the show service module
serial0 command. You should see command output similar to the following:
Router# show service-module serial0
Module type is 4-wire Switched 56K in DDS mode,
Current line rate is 56 Kbits/sec and role is Telco side,
Last clearing of alarm counters 21:23:25
oos/oof : 0,
loss of signal : 0,
loss of sealing current: 0,
CSU/DSU loopback : 0,
loopback from remote : 0,
DTE loopback : 0,
line loopback : 0,
Step 2 Confirm that the loss of signal message shows zero, which means that there are
no problems with the interface receiving a line signal.
Step 3 To continue configuration, reenter global configuration mode.
