Reference Guide

cp Enter the keyword cp to configure the memory utilization
threshold for the Control Processor CPU.
lp slot-id Enter the keyword lp and the linecard processor (lp) slot-id
for which you want to configure the CPU utilization time.
The range for lp slot-id is from 0 to 11.
pe Enter the keywordpe to configure the CPU utilization time
for port extenders (PE) configured in the system.
NOTE: The pe option is only available when the
extended bridge feature is enabled.
rp Enter the keyword rp to configure the memory utilization
threshold for the Route Processor CPU.
{{high | low} cpu-
utilization-
threshold-
percentage}
Enter a percentage value to configure the high or low
threshold level for the percentage of memory a switch CPU
can use. The percentage of memory utilization ranges from
0 to 100.
NOTE: A threshold level of 0 disables Syslog and SNMP
traps.
Default
• High threshold: 92%
• Low threshold: 82%

Usage Information When the total memory utilization for a CPU exceeds the configured high/low
threshold for a given time, a threshold notification is sent as an SNMP trap. If a low
threshold value is not specified, the low threshold value is set to the same value as
the high threshold value.
To return the memory thresholds to the default values, enter the no util-
threshold mem all | cp | lp slot—id | pe | rp command.
Example cp
Dell(conf)# util-threshold memory cp high 75 low 67
Example pe
