I read, I read...
But he also said:
"In the lab exam I wouldn't worry about setting
bandwidth values unless there was a specific reason to do so though"
I'm trying to see if my example below *is* a specific reason :-)

Sabrina, sorry to pC:t my nose here
But read what brian said " In a practical application any time that the
link speed does not match the maximum transmission speed you should set
bandwidth value accordingly."
That for me means in your case that you need to set the BW command under the
Interface
Please again excuse me to jump at this thread

Thank you Brian,
I understand now, but let me take an example of a possible lab scenario
Assuming I have a P2P link with the DCE side clocked at 64000 and I'm asked
do guarantee 10% of the bandwitdh on both sides to a given flow X and *not*
to use the percentage keyword What would be the configuration of R1 and R2?
1/1 1/1
R1 -------------------------- R2
clockrate 64000
Solution1)
R1
---
interface s1/1
bandwith 64
service-policy output s1/1-pm-out
policy-map s1/1-pm-out
class X
bandwith 6
R2
---
interface s1/1
clockrate 64000
bandwith 64
service-policy output s1/1-pm-out
policy-map s1/1-pm-out
class X
bandwith 6
Solution2)
R1
---
interface s1/1
service-policy output s1/1-pm-out
policy-map s1/1-pm-out
class X
bandwith 154 <<<<< 10% of 1544
R2
---
interface s1/1
clockrate 64000
service-policy output s1/1-pm-out
policy-map s1/1-pm-out
class X
bandwith 154

In a practical application any time that the link speed does not
match the maximum transmission speed you should set bandwidth value
accordingly. For example suppose you have a FastEthernet interface
connected to your service provider but they are policing your traffic to
5Mbps. If you issue the "bandwidth percent 75" command under the MQC
you would be configuring a bandwidth guarantee beyond your reservable
capacity. The same case would hold true for serial interface, atm
interfaces, etc. In the lab exam I wouldn't worry about setting
bandwidth values unless there was a specific reason to do so though.
