ospf cost is calculated as follows 1,0000,0000/bandwidth = cost
bandwidth is not the actual bandwidth but the one that is configured using
bandwidth command.
Example:
!
interface s0
ip add 1.1.1.1 255.255.255.0
bandwidth 2000000 (measured in bits/s)
ip ospf cost 50
!
cost = 1,0000,0000 / 2000000 = 50
Clock rate is measured in bits/second. If your bandwidth is 2Mbps, then
clock rate would be 2 x 1,000,000 = 2,000,000 bits/s

Subject: Question about OSPF
Folks,
I have a question about OSPF . In one of the labs that I
am doing he has asked the question configure the serial 0 interface of
router R2 such that the OSPF cost of the interface accurately represents
the actual speed of teh line
and in teh solution he has give a bandwidth of 2000 and clockrate of
2000000. Can anyone help me understand this concept .Thanks
Jaspreet
