Setting a Utilization Threshold
To set a utilization threshold, enter Global Configuration mode and use the following command:
set utilization high-threshold {cpu | FIRE | FORE} <utilization-percent>
The default setting for the utilization threshold is 95 percent.
Table�167:�set utilization high-threshold Command parameters�
| Parameter |
Description |
| cpu |
Sets the high threshold for CPU utilization. 100% CPU utilization is the total capacity of the supervisor module to forward slow path traffic. When 100% utilization is reached, the performance of the switch may degrade. |
| FIRE |
Sets the high threshold for utilization of the forwarding engines on 80-series media modules. 100% FIRE utilization is the total capacity of the forwarding engines on 80-series media modules to forward in band traffic. When 100% utilization is reached, the performance of the switch may degrade. |
| FORE |
Sets the high threshold for utilization of the forwarding engine on the supervisor module. 100% FORE utilization is the total capacity of the supervisor module to forward out-of-band traffic. When 100% utilization is reached, the performance of the switch may degrade. |
| <utilization-percent> |
The high threshold at which you want the switch to log an event in the event log. Enter a value from 50 through 99. The default setting is 95. |
|
Clearing the utilization threshold resets it to 95 percent, its default setting. To clear the utilization threshold, enter Global Configuration mode and use the following command:
clear utilization high-threshold {cpu | FIRE | FORE} <utilization-percent>
