Basic Question (I hope)...
Does the clock rate command specify the speed of the link? I know that the
bandwidth command is used only for higher layer protocols like OSPF and
EIGRP for metric calculation, and has no real impact on the speed of the
link.
I've read that the clock rate command does specify the speed (in bits per
second), but here's my problem: The carrier (Cablevision Lightpath) does not
provide clocking on their T's. So I had one of the routers provide clock.
Here were my choices:
-------------------------------------------------------------------
ACL-MC3810(config-)#clock rate ?
Speed (bits per second)
1200
2400
4800
9600
19200
38400
56000
64000
72000
125000
148000
250000
500000
800000
1000000
1300000
2000000
4000000
<300-4000000> Choose clockrate from list above
line Use line clock
network Use PLL clock
-------------------------------------------------------------------
As you can see nothing matches exactly with a full T1. 148000 seems to be
the best match. Is this correct? Does this mean that the speed will be 1.48
Mb/s?
Thanks in advance. Any clock rate information is appreciated. CCO is kind of
weak on this subject.
