What is the default serial encapsulation for a Cisco router? __________________________________ HDLC
Step 2: Change the serial encapsulation to PPP.
a. Issue the encapsulation ppp command on the S0/0/0 interface for the Branch1 router to change the
encapsulation from HDLC to PPP.
Branch1(config)# interface s0/0/0
Branch1(config-if)# encapsulation ppp
Branch1(config-if)#

from FULL to DOWN, Neighbor Down: Interface down or detached
Branch1(config-if)#
Jun 19 06:02:35.687: %LINEPROTO-5-UPDOWN: Line protocol on Interface Serial0/0/0,
changed state to down
b. Issue the command to display the line status and line protocol for interface S0/0/0 on the Branch1 router.
Document the command issued. What is current interface status for S0/0/0?
____________________________________________________________________________________
Branch1# show ip interface brief
Line status is up, and line protocol is down.
Branch1# show ip interface brief
Interface IP-Address OK? Method Status Protocol
Embedded-Service-Engine0/0 unassigned YES unset administratively down down
GigabitEthernet0/0 unassigned YES unset administratively down down
GigabitEthernet0/1 192.168.1.1 YES manual up up
Serial0/0/0 10.1.1.1 YES manual up down
Serial0/0/1 unassigned YES unset administratively down down
c. Issue the encapsulation ppp command on interface S0/0/0 for the Central router to correct the serial
encapsulation mismatch.
Central(config)# interface s0/0/0
Central(config-if)# encapsulation ppp
Central(config-if)#
