IP Input process increases when packets are being punted to the CPU for forwarding or for the device to itself consume them instead of those being forwarded by a lookup in the CEF table.
Common reasons are:
- CEF is disabled globally or independently on an interface forwarding traffic.
- The Router is receiving too much traffic destined to an IP address it owns like a loopback or interface IP.
- The Router is receiving too much IP traffic coming in with TTL=1 in the IP header. The router has to punt it to CPU since decreasing the TTL  to zero makes it consume it.
- The Router has to fragment or reassemble fragmented IP packets. More commonly seen when there are GRE tunnels configured on the Router.
- There is an ACL with an entry having the “log” keyword, this ACL is attached to an interface and too many packets are hitting that entry. Those packets are punted to CPU for the ACL line to log an entry for the traffic.
- etc etc
The way to troubleshoot the IP Input process running high is by looking what of the previous reasons is impacting the Router while the IP input process is running high.
