Monitoring Performance (asg perf)

Use this command to continuously monitor key performance indicators and load statistics. There are different commands for IPv4 and IPv6. You can show the performance statistics for IPv4 traffic, IPv6 traffic or for all traffic.

When you run asg perf, the statistics display shows on the screen. The display automatically updates after a predefined interval (default = 10 seconds). To stop asg perf and return to the command line, press: e

Syntax

> asg perf -h 
> asg perf [-b <sgm_ids>] [-vs <vs_ids>] [-k] [-v] [-vv] [-p] [-4|-6] [-c]  
> asg perf [-b <sgm_ids>] [-vs <vs_ids>] [-k] [--peak_hist|--perf_hist] [-e] [--delay <seconds>] 
> asg perf [-b <sgm_ids>] [-vs <vs_ids>] [-v] [-vv [ mem [fwk|cpd|fwd|all_daemons] | cpu [1m|1h|24h] ] ]

Parameter

Description

-h

Shows command syntax with help

-b <sgm_ids>

Works with SGMs and/or Chassis as specified by <sgm_ids>.

<sgm_ids> can be:

  • No <sgm_ids> specified or all shows all SGMs and Chassis
  • One SGM
  • A comma-separated list of SGMs (1_1,1_4)
  • A range of SGMs (1_1-1_4)
  • One Chassis (Chassis1 or Chassis2)
  • The active Chassis (chassis_active)

 

-vs <vs_ids>

For VSX Gateways only. Shows performance for Virtual Systems as specified by <vs_ids>.

<vs_ids> can be:

  • No <vs_ids> (default) - Shows the current Virtual System context.
  • One Virtual System.
  • A comma-separated list of Virtual Systems (1,2,4,5).
  • A range of Virtual Systems (VS 3-5).
  • all - Shows all Virtual Systems.

Note: This parameter is only relevant in a VSX environment.

-v

Shows statistics for each SGM.

-vv

For VSX Gateways only. Shows statistics for each Virtual System.

mem

Shows memory usage for each daemon.

Use this with -vv.

Possible values:

  • fwk (Default)
  • fwd
  • cpd
  • all_daemons

cpu

Shows CPU usage for a recent period of time.

Use this with -vv.

Possible values:

  • 1m (default) - The last minute
  • 1h - The last hour
  • 24h - The last 24 hours

-p

Show detailed statistics and traffic distribution between these paths on the Active Chassis:

  • Acceleration path (Performance Pack).
  • Medium path (PXL).
  • Slow path (Firewall).

-4|-6

-4 - Shows IPv4 information only.

-6 - Shows IPv6 information only.

If no value is specified, the combined performance information for both IPv4 and IPv6 shows.

-c

Show percentages instead of absolute values.

-k

Show peak (maximum) system performance values.

--peak_hist

Creates an exportable text file that contains all data saved in the peak performance files. You must use this parameter together with -k.

--perf_hist

Creates exportable text files that contain all performance data saved in the history files. You must use this parameter together with -k.

-e

Reset peak values and delete all peaks files and system history files.

--delay <seconds>

Temporarily changes the update interval for the current asg perf session. Enter a delay value in seconds. Default = 10 seconds

Notes:

  • The -b <sgm_ids> and -vs <vs_ids> parameters must written be at the start of the command string. If both parameters are used, -b <sgm_ids> must be written first.
  • If your 61000/41000 Security System is not configured for VSX, the VSX related commands are not available. They do not show when you run asg perf -h.
