Description: the amount of packets per second the CPU is handling.
What is rlSctCpuRate?
This read-only Counter32 reports the number of packets per second the device's CPU is currently handling. Admins care because a sustained abnormal spike in this rate can indicate a broadcast storm, control-plane flood, or an attack overwhelming the switch's processing capacity. For example, an admin notices this value jump to several thousand packets per second during an outage, pointing to control-plane-destined traffic saturating the CPU.
