Is ist to activate snmp on the gateways and send the data to Nagios for example.</P><P>Thanks for your infos.</P> Mon, 28 Mar 2022 10:13:36 GMT https://community.checkpoint.com/t5/Firewall-and-Security-Management/Monitoring-RAM-and-CPU-usage/m-p/144877#M22596 hw 2022-03-28T10:13:36Z Re: Monitoring RAM and CPU usage https://community.checkpoint.com/t5/Firewall-and-Security-Management/Monitoring-RAM-and-CPU-usage/m-p/144893#M22597 <P>Depends on your objective, but SNMP is certainly a valid approach.</P> <P>If you want a CLI approach use CPview.</P> Mon, 28 Mar 2022 12:03:29 GMT https://community.checkpoint.com/t5/Firewall-and-Security-Management/Monitoring-RAM-and-CPU-usage/m-p/144893#M22597 Chris_Atkinson 2022-03-28T12:03:29Z Re: Monitoring RAM and CPU usage https://community.checkpoint.com/t5/Firewall-and-Security-Management/Monitoring-RAM-and-CPU-usage/m-p/144914#M22599 <P>You can set a threshold in the SmartView Monitor to send an alert (SNMP, Mail, User Defined) when CPU or memory utilization exceeds a certain amount.&nbsp; This topic was covered in the third edition of my book. The destination for the alert is set in the SmartConsole under Global Properties...Log &amp; Alert...Alert Commands.&nbsp; &nbsp; Note that setting alerts for policy installation events as mentioned in the book can now be configured directly in the SmartConsole by using SmartTasks in version R80.40+.&nbsp;&nbsp;</P> <P><span class="lia-inline-image-display-wrapper lia-image-align-inline" image-alt="alerts.png" style="width: 433px;"><img src="https://community.checkpoint.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/15864iC4B3FFFD0932BEA0/image-size/large?v=v2&amp;px=999" role="button" title="alerts.png" alt="alerts.png" /></span></P> <P>&nbsp;</P> Mon, 28 Mar 2022 14:09:10 GMT https://community.checkpoint.com/t5/Firewall-and-Security-Management/Monitoring-RAM-and-CPU-usage/m-p/144914#M22599 Timothy_Hall 2022-03-28T14:09:10Z Re: Monitoring RAM and CPU usage https://community.checkpoint.com/t5/Firewall-and-Security-Management/Monitoring-RAM-and-CPU-usage/m-p/144916#M22600 <P>Thank you very much.
