High CPU Utilization on CISCO 3845

luanlvt02
Level 1
Level 1

We have a Cisco 3845 router configured as a voice gateway with multi SIP trunks. But when it reachs 200 calls traffic, the CPU increase to 60-70% and caused by CCSIP_SPI_CONTROL process.


CPU utilization for five seconds: 46%/30%; one minute: 54%; five minutes: 58%

PID Runtime(ms)     Invoked      uSecs   5Sec   1Min   5Min TTY Process

377   400729448   171017979       2343  6.31% 10.71% 12.44%   0 CCSIP_SPI_CONTRO

According to the document from CISCO, this issue should be originated from DTMF is not RFC2833 and command "sip-kpml" in dial-peer instead of

dtmf-relay rtp-nte. But in our configuration, we use DTMF with RFC2833 for sure and dtmf-relay rtp-nte for all dial-peers and I don't think it's the main reason making high CPU.

Can you give me any suggesstion for this case? The IOS is : c3845-adventerprisek9-mz.151-3.T3.bin

Also, this is proccess memmory in our gw :

sh proc mem sor

Do you have another log showing the high CPU? this one is not that bad and it is pointing to high CPU due to interrupts (30% does not sound bad for 200 calls at the same time), not for process, take a look at the link below.

Is it still happening?
