High CPU Interrupt Rate on 7206vxr - Page 2

Nidal Safadi · ‎01-18-2014

Hello Everybody;

I had a very stange problem we suffer from serveral months, searching all internet sites disccusions with no luck to get a solution, here are the details:

I'm a service provider which provide ADSL service, we have 5 LNSs "BRAS" to terminat PPP users via LAC of Upper service provider.

Each LNS type is Cisco 7206vxr-NPE-G2 ( c7200p-adventerprisek9-mz.151-4.M1.bin ) handle 1800 PPP sessions and also each LNS connected to 13 LAC via vpdn over l2tp tunnels, and each LNS handle (400 - 500 Mbps) of traffic which make total of 2.5 Gbps to Internet Router.

LNS configuration not include any additional configuration else it runs OSPF to collect connected routes and send it to Internet Router.

The problem is we suffer from High cpu utlization of Interrupts. Each LNS have CPU rate of : 90/70.

Please could any one give me any advice to solve this or it's a normal thing?

Note: ip cef enabled

i can provide you any show results

Here some of show results:
