Having a problem where the IP SNMP process on a Cisco 7507 is using a lot of
CPU. CPU on the router will go to 99% for 20 to 30 min. I look at the
processes on the
router and the IP SNMP process is getting 70% of the CPU. I stop netmon and
CPU drops to 25%. Restart netmon and I'm fine for a while, but at some
point, the same problem happens and the process repeats.
I'm running the following:
AIX v4.2.1
Tivoli 3.6.1
NetView/6000 v5.1.1
For what it's worth, the router is a Cisco 7507 w/ RSP2. Because the SNMP
process and not the IP forwarding or any of the processes related to
forwarding data, the traffic has to be SNMP destined for this router. I've
tried turning netmon tracing on for SNMP requests (tracemask 4), but I've
got 30,000 objects in my database and this creates quite a bit of ouput, so
I can't tell what's going on. Is there a better way to see what's happening?
