The bandwidth and delay values could be different on
each end of a circuit. For example, in frame relay
each PVC has it's own CIR/etc so you would want the
values to reflect that of the PVC. It's not needed if
theres only one route between the 2 routers, but was
pointing out in frame relay, etc it could be
different. Also, some network management/reporting
functions/apps use the bandwidth value to report line
usage so having it set correctly will produce better
#s.
