Hello,

We are having some very very slow response time from our Cisco 2600
router starting since yesterday, as you can see here from show proc cpu:


CPU utilization for five seconds: 100%/1%; one minute: 99%; five
minutes: 80%
29 2366684 441963 5354 97.20% 97.64% 77.52% 0 IP Input

the IP Input process is using all CPU resources but we only have a
2mbit/s line behind and a very small ACL. What could the problem come
from and how can I find the source of this problem ?

Thanks
Regards

Do you have CEF configured ?

Post your configuration.

Reladd the router to see if that clears the problem

What is CEF ?

I already reloaded the router, and in a few minutes it starts again.

Here is the config:

> What is CEF ?

CEF stands for Cisco Express Fprwarding and is the highest performance
switching path that Cisco has.

If your router supports it turn it on:

conf t
ip cef
exit

Post output of "sh int stat" after you enable CEF

are the far end able to support AES encyption; if so I would uggest
that you transition from DES to AES. once you sort out the CPU
utilization issue

also I would transition from group 1 to group 2
