RE: CEF debugging question

The easiest way to see what's going on is to span RP-inband and use a sniffer like WireShark to take a look at the punted packets.

See the section "SPAN RP-Inband and SP-Inband": http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/hw/switches/ps708/products_tech_note09186a00804916e0.shtml

Assuming you want to use span session 1:
rtr# remote login switch
rtr-sp# test monitor add 1 rp-inband [rx | tx | both]

Subject: OT: CEF debugging question

Hello all,

I am trying to debug CEF on a 6509. I want to know what traffic is
being punted to processed switched. Is there an easy show command that
i can use. I have tried:

sh ip cef switching statistics feature
sh cef not-cef-switched

but they only give me stats not what I am looking for.

I am doing this becuase my CPU is taking a beating and I think it is
because CEF is punting these packets down and hence killing my router.

Any and all help would be appreciated.

Thanks!
Usama
