Command Usage
Interface cost reflects the port speed. This router uses a default cost of 1
for all ports. Therefore, if you install a Gigabit module, you may have to
reset the cost for all of the 100 Mbps ports to a value greater than 1.
Example
Console(config)#interface vlan 1
Console(config-if)#ip ospf cost 10
Console(config-if)#
