No, the bandwidth command doesn't change the physical bandwidth.
It is only for routing protocols and such things.
You should use CAR or MOQ to limit the traffic.

int [interface]
rate-limit input 128000 16000 16000 conform-action transmit
exceed-action drop
rate-limit output 128000 16000 16000 conform-action transmit
exceed-action drop
