Problem with CSC-SSM and cpu usage

[Elias Michalitsis]

Hi,

I have a strange problem.

I have an asa 5520 with a csc-ssm-20 module installed.

I pass the traffic for the inside users (a Class B flat internal network) through the csc exempt some specific users, which i dont want to be filtered.

Everything is ok, but the cpu usage of the csc goes and remain always at 100%.

I don't believe that there is some much traffic and the csc must overloaded so.

I have attached two images with the sevice policy that sents the traffic to csc and the 100% usage of the csc ssm cpu.

The version of csc is 6.3.1172.1.

Can you help me to find the reason about the cpu of the csc?

Thanks

Please make sure you are not excedding the amount of internal host you are license (normaly 1000)
