High CPU usage Problem Fortigate

CLI commands you can issue to try and correct the problem in the short term.

# diag test application ipsmonitor 
 
IPS Engine Test Usage: (Values for >
1: Display IPS engine information
2: Toggle IPS engine enable/disable status
3: Display restart log
4: Clear restart log
5: Toggle bypass status
6: Submit attack characteristics now
97: Start all IPS engines
98: Stop all IPS engines
99: Restart all IPS engines and monitor


The most common command that we issue to deal with the IPS Engine running high is the following which restarts the IPS process:

# diag test application ipsmonitor 99

  1. I found this article VERY helpful;however, is there a better means of troubleshooting why IPS starts running at 100%? We've had this happen a few times in the passed week, and restarting the engine resolves the problem, but we would like to find a root cause.
