[c-nsp] GEIP+ high CPU

Hi,

Your process utilization output shows that all your traffic is
Interrupt switched (85% of 85%). I am not sure of this, but I think
lan interfaces (gig/fast/ethernet) should not be using interrupt
switching.

Can you paste the relevant config of the gig interface?



Regds,
Amol
