Extended Monitoring of CPU Utilisation
This Software Version includes a new feature for monitoring CPU utilisation.
You can now set the router or switch to capture data about which specific
functions the CPU is executing, and the level of instantaneous usage the CPU is
experiencing. This allows you, in conjunction with your authorised distributor
or reseller, to diagnose the causes of high rates of CPU utilisation on the router
or switch.
You can set the router or switch to capture data continuously, or only when the
CPU experiences a specific level of instantaneous usage. The router or switch
holds up to 500 entries (10 seconds) of data about CPU utilisation.
