nodeCpuUtil
Module: CASCADE-MIB
OID (symbolic): CASCADE-MIB::nodeCpuUtil
OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.277.1.3.11
Node type: OBJECT-TYPE
Type: Gauge
Access: read-only
Description: The CPU utilization percentage for packet processing.
What is nodeCpuUtil?
This reports the percentage of CPU capacity currently consumed by packet processing on the switch. A nodeCpuUtil that climbs into the 90s during normal traffic, not just during a burst, indicates the switch's processing card is undersized or overloaded for its current PVC and traffic count and is a leading indicator of dropped packets before throughput actually collapses.
Examples
Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.277.1.3.11 snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> CASCADE-MIB::nodeCpuUtil
Get a specific instance (index 1):
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.277.1.3.11.1 snmpget -v2c -c public <target> CASCADE-MIB::nodeCpuUtil.1
