Deepak, The bandwidth statement only serves to inform the routing protocol (depending on the protocol of course!) as to the real bandwidth of the interface - ie - what is the clock-rate - how many bits per second can the interface shift! This way the routing protocol knows which is the better link If the bandwidth command is omitted and you have 2 links which are actually 128k and 64k in reality , ospf would see these links as equal!
