Defining CPU Thresholding Notification

Joselgil17

Hello,

We are having some problems with the CPU levels of a 2960 switch. We have configure SNMP notification with the following command:

process cpu threshold type total rising 70 interval 5

As we understand, that command is configuring the switch to send an SNMP trap when the total CPU load is over 70%.

We don't know what INTERVAL means because if we read Cisco documentation, it says:

5-second polling interval.

But we don't understand that if that means that the CPU utilization is going to check each 5 seconds or that the 70% CPU load needs to remain in that level during 5 seconds to trigger the TRAP.....

Could someone confirm us the meaning of that option?

Many thanks,

It means it will poll every 5 seconds to see if the CPU is over 70%.

Thanks for the answer.

Is there any way to configure the SNMP trap to be only triggered when that CPU level is reached during a period of time?

For example, 70% during 5 minutes.....
