Command Reference
PA-E3 and PA-2E3 Serial Port Adapter 7
dsu mode
To specify the interoperability mode used by the PA-E3 port adapter, use the dsu mode interface
configuration command. To return to the default mode, use the no form of this command.
dsu mode {0 | 1}
no dsu mode
Syntax Description
Default
0 mode
Command Mode
Interface configuration
Usage Guidelines
This command first appeared in Cisco IOS Release 11.1 CA.
The local interface configuration must match the remote interface configuration. For example, if you
define the data service unit (DSU) interoperability mode as 1 on the local port, you must also do the
same on the remote port.
You must know what type of DSU is connected to the remote port to determine if it interoperates
with the PA-E3 port adapter. Use mode 0 to connect a PA-E3 port adapter to another PA-E3 port
adapter or to a Digital Link DSU (DL3100). Use mode 1 to connect a PA-E3 port adapter to a
Kentrox DSU.
The dsu mode command enables and improves interoperability with other DSUs.
To verify the DSU mode configured on the interface, use the show controller serial EXEC
command.
Example
The following example sets the DSU mode to 1 on interface 1/0/0:
interface serial 1/0/0
dsu mode 1

0 Sets the interoperability mode to 0. This is the default. Specify mode 0
to connect the PA-E3 port adapter to another PA-E3 port adapter or to a
Digital Link DSU (DL3100).
1 Sets the interoperability mode to 1. Specify mode 1 to connect the
PA-E3 port adapter to a Kentrox DSU.
