hello,

I have a system that is experiencing high cpu utilization due to the "Collection proce".  Does anyone have any info about this process?

Hello,

 

I had the same issue on a Cisco 2921 router but I managed to solve it.

It seems the problem indeed was a recursive routing issue that made the cpu go crazy.

I had the same issue where the collection process was using CPU on a pair of internet routers. Ends up the people who previously configured the routers missed the "neighbor XX.XX.XX.XX next-hop-self" commands in the BGP settings creating an IP loop. Figured it out by going through the configuration of each router and reviewing the URL below.
