I have just noticed that my Cisco ASA 5510 cpu utilization increasing upto 30-35 % and when i issue sh processes cpu-usage, i have found dispatch unit occupied most of utilization.

Kindly help in this regards.

Dispatch unit covers normal traffic processing. Is this under some traffic load?

Hi Bikespace,

There are not much increment in traffic load since long time it has shown CPU around 5-7 % utilize but sudden increament made me worry.

Dear All,

How we can compare ASA models based on dispatch unit processing capacity for choosing  a proper ASA model?
