Manipulating OSPF metric calculations

[srosenthal]

How do I configure the OSPF process to reflect the following metric calculations?

Bandwidth (Mbps)     OSPF Cost

10000                              2

10                              2000

1.544                         12953

0.768                         26041

Thanx, Seth

You can apply the cost value directly to the interface.  Cost is calculated on a hop by hop basis, and is generally additive, and you can't configure the cost-to-bandwidth numbers on a global basis ... must be done per interface.

int x/x

ip ospf cost x

Actually I think I figured it out.

If you use the "auto-cost referenced-bandwidth 200" command, this sets the global metric calculations.

Ahh ... very nice ... my mistake.
