How to montior Cisco ASR1001 CPU Utilization

We found a MIB on the Cisco ftp in the "CISCO-PROCESS-MIB.my", that described some oids including:

- 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.109.1.1.1.1.7: The overall CPU busy percentage in the last 1 minute period. This object deprecates the object cpmCPUTotal1min and increases the value range to (0..100).

- 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.109.1.1.1.1.8: The overall CPU busy percentage in the last 5 minute period. This object deprecates the object cpmCPUTotal5min and increases the value range to (0..100).

There a lot of oids contained, that might be of use for you. Here is a download link for you. You can use the mib importer, to import the mib into PRTG.

Here is a description on how to use the mib importer.

Hi there,

To add to this question, I'm having difficulties graphing CPU utilization for ASR1001's.

When using SNMP walk from a Linux server I get a response and am able to graph from Cacti:

$snmpwalk -v2c -c removed 10.209.20.31 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.109.1.1.1.1.7
SNMPv2-SMI::enterprises.9.9.109.1.1.1.1.7.2 = Gauge32: 11

However, when testing with the SNMP Tester I get the same error as in PRTG:

2/08/2013 2:37:03 p.m. (1 ms) : Start using SNMP V2c
2/08/2013 2:37:03 p.m. (64 ms) : -------
2/08/2013 2:37:03 p.m. (64 ms) : Value: No such instance (SNMP error # 223)
2/08/2013 2:37:03 p.m. (64 ms) : Done

Any thoughts on the solution?

Regards,

Dan

Which oid did you use with the Tester?

• 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.109.1.1.1.1.7 or
• 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.109.1.1.1.1.7.2 ?

If you select "Walk" in the Tester, you need to use the first one. If you use "Custom Oid" in the tester, you need to use the second one.

The "walk" returns every oid, that starts with the specified oid. The "Custom Oid" returns only that specified oid.

If your Tester does not provide the "walk", you might need to go to the SNMP tester page and download the latest Beta.
