• {{high | low} cpu-utilization-threshold-percentage} — Enter a percentage value to configure the high or low threshold level
for the time in which a switch CPU can be used. The percentage of CPU use ranges from 0 to 100.
Defaults
– High CPU utilization threshold: 1 min = 85%, 5 min = 80%
– Low CPU utilization threshold: 1 min = 75%, 5 min = 70%
NOTE: A threshold level of 0 disables Syslog and SNMP traps.
• Configure the high or low CPU utilization threshold for SNMP traps.
CONFIGURATION mode
util-threshold cpu 5sec {cp | rp | lp | pe| all}

Configuring Threshold Memory Utilization for
SNMP Traps
When the total memory utilization for a CPU exceeds the configured high/low threshold for a given time, a threshold
notification is sent as an SNMP trap. If a low threshold value is not specified, the low threshold value is set to the same value as
the high threshold value. Use the util-threshold memory command to configure the high or low memory utilization
threshold for SNMP traps.
Use the util-threshold memory command to configure the high or low memory utilization threshold for SNMP traps. Use
the show util-threshold memory to display the configured values of memory utilization thresholds.
Parameters
• cp — Enter the keyword cp to configure the memory utilization threshold for the Control Processor CPU.
• rp — Enter the keyword rp to configure the memory utilization threshold time for the Route Processor CPU
