ppeCpuUtilization
Module: CTATX-MIB
OID (symbolic): CTATX-MIB::ppeCpuUtilization
OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.97.3.3.3.18
Node type: OBJECT-TYPE
Type: INTEGER
Access: read-only
Description: The current CPU utilization on the Packet Processing Engine.
What is ppeCpuUtilization?
This read-only INTEGER reports the current CPU utilization bucket of the Packet Processing Engine as low-cpu(1), medium-cpu(2), or high-cpu(3). An administrator uses it as a quick health check to see if the packet-processing CPU is becoming a performance bottleneck. For example, the admin correlates a reading of high-cpu(3) in ppeCpuUtilization with a simultaneous rise in ppeTxCongests, confirming CPU saturation as the root cause of dropped packets.
Examples
Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.97.3.3.3.18 snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> CTATX-MIB::ppeCpuUtilization
Get a specific instance (index 1):
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.97.3.3.3.18.1 snmpget -v2c -c public <target> CTATX-MIB::ppeCpuUtilization.1
