5. Identify abnormal traffic
It's worthwhile to verify how many packets are trapped by the CPU due to FFP rules (packets may be
trapped to the CPU due to other reasons—see chapter Packet Driver for more details). The following
commands will be helpful to locate abnormal traffic by showing the type and number of packets.

2.5. Memory Leak
The following output shows memory utilization by process and can be helpful in determing which task is
consuming memory, or if memory for a specific task is gradually increasing in the case of a memory leak.
