[cisco-voip] C2960S Switch High CPU

[James Jung]

Hi guys

I have C2960S switches and one of it has high cpu rate constantly.
It seems that this switch processes lots of traffic and shows lots of output drops too.
The show process cpu sort shows that 'VLAN Manager' process takes up 40 to 60% of the total cpu time.
Does anyone know about the VLAN Manager process? Is this because traffic load?

show interfaces summ

 *: interface is up
 IHQ: pkts in input hold queue     IQD: pkts dropped from input queue
 OHQ: pkts in output hold queue    OQD: pkts dropped from output queue
 RXBS: rx rate (bits/sec)          RXPS: rx rate (pkts/sec)
 TXBS: tx rate (bits/sec)          TXPS: tx rate (pkts/sec)
 TRTL: throttle count
