Configuring CPU Threshold Notifications

Setting a Rising CPU Thresholding Notification: Example
The following example shows how to set a rising CPU thresholding notification for total CPU utilization.
When total CPU utilization exceeds 80 percent for a period of 5 seconds or longer, a rising threshold
notification is sent.


Router(config)# process cpu threshold type total rising 80 interval 5

Note When the optional falling arguments (percentage and seconds) are not specified, they take on the same
values as the rising arguments (percentage and seconds).


Setting a Falling CPU Thresholding Notification: Example
The following example shows how to set a falling CPU thresholding notification for total CPU
utilization. When total CPU utilization, which at one point had risen above 80 percent and triggered a
rising threshold notification, falls below 70 percent for a period of 5 seconds or longer, a falling
threshold notification is sent.


Router(config)# process cpu threshold type total rising 80 interval 5 falling 70 interval 5

Note When the optional falling arguments (percentage and seconds) are not specified, they take on the same
values as the rising arguments (percentage and seconds).
