For what its worth, my studies during my CCNP prep indicated the textbook solution was to set BW = Port Speed on the physical interface, and BW = CIR on the subinterfaces. I also found 2600 routers with internal CSUs actually adjust BW to equal the number of channels configured on the CSU. Setting BW does adjust port costs, and look at what the BW setting will produce before I monkey with setting the cost directly.
""Rajesh Kumar"" wrote in message [EMAIL PROTECTED]">news:[EMAIL PROTECTED]... Hi all, CCIE Practical studies - Vol I book - EIGRP chapter says that the bandwidth command used in serial interfaces should be set to a value equal to the remote port speed to which the serial interface is connected to. For ex : RTR 1 ---------------------------------- RTR 2 1.544 Mbps 64 Mbps int s0 int s0 bandwidth 64 bandwidth 1544 My question is - Is it not going to affect the other routing protocols like OSPF where we set the bandwidth decides the cost of the outgoing interfaces. Can somebody shed some light on this please?
