Re: 2600 Serial Interface: clock rate vs. bandwidth

basically the clock rate depends on the type of interfaces you are
using. If you are using the low speed interfaces then the clockrate will
not go beyond the 128k. If you are using T interfaces then the lockrate
will go beyond 128k. Bandwidth is used for the routing purpose and on
cisco serial interfaces it is by default 1544k.Basically it uses for the
routing purpose. By manipulating the bandwidth on the interface you can
force the routing decisions to choose the certain path. It does not
relate with clockrate of the interface.
