bandwidth

By default, OSPF computes the link cost of an interface as the ratio of the
reference bandwidth to the interface bandwidth. Reference bandwidth is
specified with the auto-cost command. For the purpose of the OSPF link cost
calculation, the bandwidth command specifies the interface bandwidth. The
bandwidth is specified in kilobits per second. If no bandwidth is configured,
the bandwidth defaults to the actual interface bandwidth for port-based
routing interfaces and to 10 Mbps for VLAN routing interfaces. This
command does not affect the actual speed of an interface.
