Depending on the interface you may need to enable a few other things to keep the interface up (after making sure things are plugged in correctly)<br />
For a serial connection make sure to set the clock rate. &nbsp;It is only required on one end, but setting it on both works<br />
Config t<br />
Interface &lt;sreial whatever&gt;<br />
clock rate &lt;56000 is default I believe&gt;<br />
<br />
Also make sure your protocol setup on the interfaces is correct, hello / dead timers and whatnot can get in the way. <br />

A router is a networking device that forwards data packets between computer networks. Routers perform the "traffic directing" functions on the Internet. The most familiar type of routers are home and small office cable or DSL routers that simply pass data, such as web pages, email, IM, and videos between computers and the Internet. More sophisticated routers, such as enterprise routers, connect large business or ISP networks up to the powerful core routers that forward data at high speed along the optical fiber lines of the Internet backbone. Though routers are typically dedicated hardware devices, use of software-based routers has grown increasingly common.
