Answer / saritha
Serial interfaces don't use MAC addresses because MAC
addresses are only used with Ethernet. Serial uses PPP,
HDLC, Frame Relay, etc for its layer 2, none of which use
MAC addresses.

Answer / depinder
serial interfaces do not possess MAC address....in IPV6 if we configure an ipv6 address,then they derive their link local address from ethernet interface mac address that we call as EUI-64 addressing format.

Answer / diegoashraf
hi,
If ur configuring serial interface as point point link
(not configuring as Fram-relay),no need of mac address.Mac
address is a ethernet standards, MAC address is relevant in
Multi-Access networks like Ethernet where you have several
hosts on the same network.

Suppose we have 4 switches runing in VTP mode. So when i create a VLAN in Server Switch this VLAN info reflect in all other switch. So question is - A) Suppose i m practicing this scenario in BOSON software, When a create a VLAN in server switch n ADD ports of switch to that VLAN, the same number of ports of client switch also belongs to dat VLAN. For example - In switch A (Server mode), i create a VLAN 7 name Hyderabad & port number 1, 2 & 3 put into this VLAN. Another Switch B (Client mode), its also showing that port number 1,2 & 3 belong the same VLAN. How cud it possible... As we know, VTP share only VLAN configuration information. Cud anyone explain it please....!!!! B)Same thing, when i m practicing in PACKET TRACER 5.0, its only showing that VLAN configuration information is shared. No port information is shared at all. I can manually configure individual switch port to respective VLAN as our wish. Cud anyone explain it please..!!!
