Use the util-threshold memory command to congure the high or low memory utilization threshold for SNMP traps. Use the show
util-threshold memory to display the congured values of memory utilization thresholds.
Parameters
cp — Enter the keyword cp to congure the memory utilization threshold for the Control Processor CPU.
rp — Enter the keyword rp to congure the memory utilization threshold time for the Route Processor CPU
lp — Enter the keyword lp to congure the linecard processor memory utilization threshold time. The range of switch slot IDs is from 0
to 2.
pe — Enter the keyword, pe to congure the CPU memory utilization time for of all PEs that are congured in the system.
all — Enter the keyword all to congure the memory utilization threshold on all switch CPUs: Control Processor, Route Processor,
PE, and line cards.
{{high | low} cpu-utilization-threshold-percentage} — Enter a percentage value to congure the high or low threshold level for the
percentage of memory a switch CPU can used. The percentage of CPU use ranges from 0 to 100.
Defaults
High threshold: 92%
Low threshold: 82%
NOTE: A threshold level of 0 disables Syslog and SNMP traps.
Congure the high or low memory utilization thresholds for SNMP traps.
CONFIGURATION mode
util—threshold memory {5 sec | 1 min | 5 min} {cp |rp | lp | pe | all} {high {0-100} | low
{0-100}}
Example of Conguring CPU Utilization Threshold
To display the congured values of memory utilization thresholds, use the show util-threshold memory command from
CONFIGURATION mode.
