Just want to check with you about memory utilization on the Asa 5510 ..
Free memory: 19%
Used Memory: 81%
Is this normal? Because we hade a problem this morning and the memory was at 100%..

We recently added about 400 users to our network for a total of 1000. Looking at the ASDM we are holding very tight to 75% utilization and we have 256mbs. This is also running IOS 8.2(1). Our firewall recently crashed after a major download was forced through it. This was after only being booted up for about a week. We had reloaded it a week prior after having ran it for about a year without issue. We havent made any changes in the last month other than adding more users to our network.

I noticed in all my deployments, regardless if it's during peak hours or after office hours, the memory utilization is always consistent 11MB utilized over the total of 16MB(memory default size).

We had two PIXes in our environment and working as a active-failover mode. Its noted in now a days the active PIX memory utilization is 98% and for standby PIX it is 96%. And also in some times we were experiencing packet loss to the ip of active PIX and which reflects in the inside servers access also. During that time the active pix was not accessible via ssh as well as ASDM. We have tried reloading the PIX and changing failover state of the PIX, but it results only a temporary solution. Current memory installed is 128 MB (maximum upgraded), so a upgrade is also not possible. Please see the show command outputs from the PIX. Current Software version is 7.2(4)
sh memory output (PIX 1 - active)
Free memory: 4850944 bytes ( 4%)
Used memory: 129366784 bytes (96%)
[code]....
1) How we can pin point the root cause of this high memory utilization?
2) What might be the reason for the high memory utilization for the standby pix (96%), still the PIX is in idle state?
3) Is it a hardware issue or a memory leak issue, then how can we find out?
4) Is a software upgrade to new version resolves the memory issue?
I have an ASA that is logging the message %ASA-3-321007: system is low on free memory blocks of size 2048. I ran the "show blocks" command and the "Cnt" value for the 2048 blocks is 0. How do I reclaim these blocks and what are they used for?
View 1 Replies View RelatedWe want to run ASA 8.4.x on an old ASA5540. We need to upgrade its memory to 2 GB with the following memory upgrade: ASA5540-MEM-2GB=
I suspect that we will completely remove the existing 1 GB of memory and replace it with 2 GB. If this is the case, can I use this 1 GB of memory removed from the ASA5540 and put it in a ASA5510 instead of buying a ASA5510-MEM-1GB= for the ASA5510?
Are the ASA memory DIMMs created for specific models? Would a 1GB 5510 Memory stick work in a 5520?

View 3 Replies View RelatedWe have a 7206 router which acts as a MPLS Hub router for around 100+ remote locations. Bandwidh at mpls hub(terminated on this router) is 50 Mbps.
We have noticed that Memory utilization in this router gradually increases and when it reaches 100% this router hangs. It happence in frequesncy of 10 days and we have to restart the router when memory is 100%.
CPU utilization is normal i.e below 20%, WAN bandwidth will never cross 30mbps.
We are running OSPF on this router
We have one Catalyst 6506 ( with WS-SUP720-3B, IOS is 12.2(18)SXF14 ) and one Catalyst 6509 ( with WS-SUP720-3B, IOS is 12.2(18)SXF17a ). We used WhatsUP to collect I/O & process memory utilization for both switches. The memory utilization for Catalyst 6509 was ok, but it seems not correct for Catalyst 6506 ( show proc memory displayed the total memory is 512MB, but the WhatsUP displayed only 64MB only )

Cisco IOS Software, C2960S Software (C2960S-UNIVERSALK9-M), Version 12.2(55)SE3, RELEASE SOFTWARE (fc1)
The switches see very few traffic (under 40MB on all interfaces, summed, so far), however, I/O memory utilization is about 80% as can be seen from the show memory command:

The memory allocated is almost all Packet Data, by init, "sho memory io dead" returns zero, the memory usage seems constant, there are no errors on the log, the switches operate correctly, no packet has ever been dropped, CPU usage is about 4%.
Here I showed info for one switch, the other is in the same situation. I just want to know if this behavior is expected, I don't want to find out problems when the switches will be in production whit real traffic.
I have the problem that our ciscoworks server gets out of memory after few days. The memory utilization is always getting higher an higher (above 95%). Sometimes it is only after 3 days and sometimes it is after 1 week. So it happens not regularly. I have made an screenshot from the services which use a lot of memory. And at this time the memory utilization is getting higher and higher again....I think there is a problem with tomcat or dbsrv10.exe, there are also a lot of cwjava.exe running.

We terminated about 25 site-to-site VPN tunnels on the Cisco ASA 5540 (2 GB RAM). It appears that the memory utilization is getting higher when adding the tunnel. We are planing to remove those 25 VPN tunnels out 5540, and soon we will add additional 40 VPN tunnels on it. So it will be total around 65 tunnels, and maybe add couple tunnels per year for the future grow, but about 25 VPN tunnels are using at all the time, the others are just backup purpose, standby only. We are looking for the new network device (router or ASA) to accommodate the needs. Which network device is better to handle VPN tunnel for this infrastructure?
View 5 Replies View RelatedI noticed on the 2960 switches we have deployed that are running the latest IOS, 12.2(58)SE2, memory utilization is really high (almost 80 percent). I have not noticed any side effects but I wanted to verify this is acceptable. My question is does the high memory utilization matter? I see this may be related to bug CSCtw83946 but no resolution is mentioned.
I did some testing various IOS revisions and below is what I have found using a WS-C2960-48TC-L with default configuration and only my laptop connected to a switchport in vlan1. You will notice memory utilization will grows with each version but jumps drastically with 58. One difference with 58 I needed to use a different command to retrieve memory utilization. The output was gathered by pasting the output of the show command into the Cisco Output Interpreter on their website.

I am facing high memory utilization in Cisco 2960 switch having IOS version 12.2(55)SE3.
The error we are getting is:
A "LiveHealthAlarm" event has occurred, from SwCiscoIOS device, named Switch2960. eHealth Alarm Start Time - Fri 09 Nov,2012 - 03:02:48 eHealth. Switch2960-RH-MemoryPool-Processor-Processor-1.Memory utilization high-Threshold set at 70%SPECTRUM ALARM ID|22233284 I have attached the logs also.

I am seeing high memory utilisation, it seems to sit fairly stable and I do not see an increase but this has only been running a few days. No errors or performance issues. Should this be a cause for concern?
View 3 Replies View RelatedWe had a stack of 4 qty 3750g running IP base on ver 12.2.32, then installed a 3750x to the stack and upgraded the whole stack to 15.0.2 SE3. In doing so, we noticed that the memory utilization jumped from 60-70% to 83-84%.
We had the same issue occur when upgrading to 15.0.2 SE3 on another stack that was 6 qty 3750g running ip-services, but this one jumped to 90%. On the 6 qty stack, we downgraded to 12.2.55 and the memory util went back down to 60-70%.
On the mixed stack, we replaced the 3750x with another 3750g and downgraded the whole stack to 12.2.55, however, the memory utilization did not drop down. As far as I can tell, no config changes have changed from the original IOS.
I upgraded the newest IOS 15.0(1)SE for our SW C2960-24-TT-L, the process was succeseful. However, we found SW memory utilization raised to 82% this morning in normal situation. (Momery: Total 21341260, Used17471692) Did you guys meet the same problem after upgrading to 15.0(1)SE? I also would like to know what the normal memory utilization is? and what is the impact of memory utilization highly?

I am doing the initial configuration on our ASA 5510 to use our Radius server just as our 3005 VPN Concentrator did. I can do the test connection inside the ASA with no problems, and when I authenticate using the Anyconnect client, it appears to authenticate fine, but then dumps the connection with an error stating there is not enough memory in he ASA to allow this connection, the error message is as follows:
Error Message %ASA-4-722004: Group group User user-name IP IP_address Error responding
to SVC connect request.
Explanation There is not enough memory to perform the action.
Recommended Action Purchase more memory, upgrade the device, or reduce the load on the device.
Can this really be the case with no connections active, a single user attempting to authenticate through Radius and an out-of-the-box ASA 5510?
I am trying to load the anyconnect VPN client package v3 for windows and Mac on ASA 5510. The ASA has 256MB for RAM and Flash. After I uploaded pkg files and selected the 2 files and applied from ASDM, ASDM spots responding...
I tried to tftp the running config from ASA to my laptop to analyse but got "No memory available" message...
So it seems like the "unzip" process of the pkg files used up memory... what is really the requirement of the mini Memory/RAM on ASA for hosting anyconnect Clients for 2 OS platform? Requirement on Cisco web site is kind of vague.
I matched the traffic statistics on one of my Cisco ASA site-site tunnels with the OID:1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.171.1.4.3.1.1.25.4142 (cipSecTunHistInOctets). I was real proud of myself for a few days until I checked the history and found the OID wasnt working.After some troubleshooting I found that the last four digits (4142 in this case) change whenever the tunnel drops and re-establishes itself. Any way to collect tunnel utilization history on an ASA with SNMP? Is there a different OID I can use thats based on the endpoint IP?
