Insight Managed 8-Port Gigabit Ethernet Smart Cloud Switch with 2 SFP Fiber Ports
Configure the CPU Thresholds
The CPU utilization threshold notification feature allows you to configure thresholds that,
when exceeded, trigger a notification. The notification occurs through SNMP trap and syslog
messages.
 To configure the CPU thresholds:
1. Connect your computer to the same network as the switch.
You can use a WiFi or wired connection to connect your computer to the network, or
connect directly to a switch that is off-network using an Ethernet cable.
2. Launch a web browser.
3. In the address field of your web browser, enter the IP address of the switch.
If you do not know the IP address of the switch, see Access the Switch on page 13.
The login window opens.
4. Enter the switch’s password in the password field.
The default password is password. If you added the switch to a network on the Insight
app before and you did not yet change the password through the local browser interface,
enter your Insight network password.
The System Information page displays.
5. Select System > Management > System CPU Status > CPU Threshold.
The CPU Threshold page displays.
6. Specify the thresholds:
• Rising Threshold. Notification is generated when the total CPU utilization exceeds
this threshold value over the configured time period. The range is 1 to 100.
• Rising Interval. This utilization monitoring time period can be configured from 5 to
86400 seconds in multiples of 5 seconds.
• Falling Threshold. Notification is triggered when the total CPU utilization falls below
this level for a configured period of time.
The falling utilization threshold must be equal to or less than the rising threshold
value. The falling utilization threshold notification is sent only if a rising threshold
notification was sent previously. Configuring the falling utilization threshold and time
period is optional. If the Falling CPU utilization parameters are not configured, the
parameters automatically get the same values as the Rising CPU utilization
parameters. The range is 1 to 100.
• Falling Interval. The utilization monitoring time period can be configured from 5
seconds to 86400 seconds in multiples of 5 seconds.
• Free Memory Threshold. The free memory threshold value for the CPU in KB.
