Command Usage
Once the rising alarm threshold is exceeded, utilization must drop beneath the
falling threshold before the alarm is terminated, and then exceed the rising
threshold again before another alarm is triggered.
Example
Console(config)#process cpu rising 80
Console(config)#process cpu falling 60

show process cpu (120)
process cpu guard This command sets the CPU utilization high and low watermarks in percentage of
CPU time utilized and the CPU high and low thresholds in the number of packets
being processed per second. Use the no form of this command without any
parameters to restore all of the default settings, or with a specific parameter to
restore the default setting for that item.
Syntax
process cpu guard [high-watermark high-watermark |
low-watermark low-watermark | max-threshold max-threshold |
min-threshold min-threshold | trap]
high-watermark - If the percentage of CPU usage time is higher than the
high-watermark, the switch stops packet flow to the CPU (allowing it to
catch up with packets already in the buffer) until usage time falls below the
low watermark. (Range: 40-100%)
low-watermark - If packet flow has been stopped after exceeding the high
watermark, normal flow will be restored after usage falls beneath the low
watermark. (Range: 40-100%)
max-threshold - If the number of packets being processed per second by
the CPU is higher than the maximum threshold, the switch stops packet
flow to the CPU (allowing it to catch up with packets already in the buffer)
until the number of packets being processed falls below the minimum
threshold. (Range: 50-500 pps)
min-threshold - If packet flow has been stopped after exceeding the
maximum threshold, normal flow will be restored after usage falls beneath
the minimum threshold. (Range: 50-500 pps)
