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.

Your Ethernet interface currently has the IP address of 1.1.1.1/24. You would like it to have a second IP address of 2.2.2.2/24. Which command will do that?
