[c-nsp] 6500 SVI Question

[Paul Stewart]

Thanks Tim.... whew! ;)

Actually, I was misreading the bandwidth statement itself  - missed a zero
earlier so thought you could only set it to 1 Gig, now I realized you can
set it up to 10GE.  Updated it to 2Gig and everything good now..

Much appreciated,

Paul

Hi Paul,

The bandwidth does not affect the throughput etc and doesn't take 
into account the underlying L2 interfaces bandwidth. It strictly for 
use by the routing protocols to determine metrics (and can be 
modified using the "bandwidth" interface command). Also you can 
change the reference b/w using "ospf auto-cost reference-bandwidth" 
under the "router ospf" process.

Hope that helps,
Tim
