MBUF Utilization Commands
The MBUF utilization commands let you see which applications and client tasks consume and free
up memory buffers (MBUFs). Viewing the count of low, medium, and large MBUFs can be useful
during a debugging process.
You can configure MBUF utilization thresholds that trigger an MBUF utilization notification when
the thresholds ar
e exceeded. This notification occurs through SNMP traps and syslog messages.
mbuf
This command lets you configure MBUF threshold limits and generate notifications when MBUF
limits are reached.
You can configure two types of utilization thresholds:
• Rising. If the to
tal MBUF utilization exceeds the rising threshold, a notification is generated.
After you have configured or changed the rising threshold, if the MBUF utilization exceeds
the rising threshold, a single notification is generated. Subsequent rising notifications are
generated only if the MBUF utilization exceeds the configured threshold after a falling
threshold notification was triggered.
• F
alling. If the total MBUF utilization exceeds the falling threshold after a rising threshold
no
tification was triggered, a new notification is generated.
You can configure the severity level that is used to generate a notification. The default severity
level is NOTICE, which you can override.
no mbuf
This command disables MBUF threshold limits.
Format mbuf {rising-threshold <threshold-val> | falling-threshold
<threshold-val> | severity <severity-level>}
Mode Global Config
Parameter Description
rising-threshold The percentage of the memory buffer resources that, when exceeded for the configured
rising inter
val, triggers a notification. The range is 1 to 100. The default is 0 (disabled).
falling-threshold The percentage of the memory buffer resources that, when usage falls below this level for
the configur
ed interval, triggers a notification. The range is 1 to 100. The default is 0
(disabled).
severity The severity level at which messages are logged.
Format no mbuf {rising-threshold | falling-threshold | severity}
Mode Global Config
