[c-nsp] IOS 12.2(52)SE + REP - 3560G

[Mark Tinka]

Hi all.

Anyone else seeing a 100%+ jump in CPU utilization on a 
3560G upgraded from IOS 12.2(44)SE2 to 12.2(52)SE? Average 
CPU utilization sat at 5%. Since the upgrade, we're seeing 
11% - 12%

I'm suspecting the "REP LSL Hello PP" software process as 
that's chewing up a bit of CPU time. I can't say I've 
noticed it before. Suffice it to say, REP isn't supported on 
this platform.

Looking at the release notes for this code base, the 
following is an added feature for the 3560-E and 3750-E:

"Shorter Resilient Ethernet Protocol (REP) hello: Changes 
the range of the REP link status layer (LSL) age timer from 
3000 to 10000 ms in 500-ms intervals to 120 to 10000 ms in 
40-ms intervals."

The box is doing pure Layer 2 Ethernet switching only.

Appreciate any thoughts.

Cheers,

Mark.
