Measures reported by PEPCPUUsageTest

One of the probable reasons for the poor performance of the Peplink WAN Router is excessive CPU usage. Administrators should hence continuously track how well the router utilizes CPU resources, so that abnormal usage patterns can be proactively detected and corrected to ensure peak performance of the router. This CPU utilization check can be performed using the PEPCPUUsageTest test. At configured intervals, this test monitors the current CPU usage level of the target router.

Outputs of the test : One set of results for the target router that is being monitored.

The measures made by this test are as follows:

Measurement Description Measurement Unit Interpretation
Cpu_usage Indicates the percentage of CPU utilized by the router. Percent Ideally, the value of this measure should be low. An unusually high value or a consistent increase in this value is indicative of abnormal CPU usage which requires further investigation.
