Parameter: Clock Source
Default: Internal
Options: External

Internal
Function: Identifies whether the router provides clocking (INTERNAL) or receives
clocking (EXTERNAL) from the other device. The parameter specifies
the origin of the synchronous timing signals. If you set this parameter to
Internal, this router supplies the required timing signals. If you set this
parameter to External, an external network device supplies the required
timing signals.
Use this parameter when connecting the SNA equipment directly to the
router. Either the router or the SNA equipment can define the speed of the
SDLC link. You must configure one device to internal clocking, and the
other device to external clocking.
Instructions: For direct connection to a control unit, such as an IBM 3174, set to
Internal. For connection to a modem, set to External. For direct
connection to an IBM 3745, either the router or the IBM 3745 can provide
the clock source. If the IBM 3745 does not provide clocking, set to
Internal.
