Cisco ASA 55xx-X Memory Architecture

[Joao Vecchi]

Hello,

Please, I would like to ask if someone has and could share a document that explains about ASA 5515-X memory architecture and how memory is used/allocated as well as monitored.

How ASA works allocating process to those counters below ?

System Memory

MEMPOOL_DMA

MEMPOOL_GLOBAL_SHARED

I had an issue with monitoring the MEMPOOL_GLOBAL_SHARED and found that

(http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/support/docs/security/asa-5500-x-series-next-generation-firewalls/116423-troubleshoot-asa-snmp.html)).

It that still valid as it a document from 2013 ? Should I disable monitoring for MEMPOOL_GLOBAL_SHARED ?

Thanks in advance,

Joao.
