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.

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.
