Actually we have a 12.1(2)T on a 3640 that reports the serial interface
bandwidth is 2048(E1 speeds). Of course we don't get E1's here in the U.S.
and it is a regular T and the Bandwidth parameter was never changed. I
cannot explain the discrepency except that this parameter has nothing to do
with actual bandwidth and is only used to affect routing metrics or costs so
you should set it to however you want your metrics that use the bandwidth
parameter to see the link.

Subject: "clock rate 1300000." What is the bandwidth, and why can't you
set it to something closer to the default BW on fast serial interfaces?
The default bandwidth on the serial interfaces on 2500s is 1.544 mbps.
However, when you set the clock rate, the closest value is 1300000.
Could someone please explain the discrepancy? Clock rate 64000 gives
you bandwidth of 64000 mbps. If I use clock rate 1300000, what should
I put down as the bandwidth of the interface? 1300?
The IOS 12.1 docs on the clock rate command does not explain this.
