[c-nsp] E3 Link between 12000 & 72000 VXR

Hello All,

We try to connect a 7200VXR with a GSR through E3 circuit (Back-to-Back).
The E3 Serial interface is UP – UP but we can not ping each other.
The 2 routers establish CDP neighborship and if we enable ISIS the 
routers can exchange LSAs and from routing view everything is OK.
It seems that for some strange reason the IP traffic can not pass over 
the E3 interface.

According cisco: Enable scrambling before the data has gone through 
subrate processing by using the before subrate processing option with 
the scramble command. This configuration is necessary when connecting to 
Cisco 7200 Router E3 port adapters.

athgsr04(config)#interface Serial 1/1
athgsr04(config-if)#scr
athgsr04(config-if)#scramble ?
<cr>
The command “scramble before subrate” is missing.
