Set Threshold for CSDS Groups

Set threshold values for the parameters to monitor your SRX Series Firewalls in Connected Security Distributed Services (CSDS) groups.

You can set threshold values for various device parameters that you want to monitor. These thresholds are crucial for maintaining the optimal performance and security of your network. The values shown on the Set Threshold page come with default settings. To ensure that the device operates according to your requirements, you can modify these threshold values. This customization allows you to adjust device performance and monitor whether any of the parameters exceed the threshold limits. For example, you might want to set thresholds for CPU usage, memory usage, or session counts to ensure that your device is not overloaded and can handle the traffic efficiently.

By default, the threshold values for all device parameters are set to 80 percent. The recommended range for these parameters is between 50 and 80 percent. You can set any parameter to a maximum value of 100 percent. Entering a value of 0 will disable threshold monitoring for that parameter.

To access this page, click Inventory > CSDS Groups > Set Threshold.

To modify the threshold values:

  1. Click Set Threshold.
  2. Complete the configuration according to the guidelines provided below:
    Table 1: Set Threshold
    Parameter Description
    Routing Engine (RE) - CPU usage Percentage of RE CPU used by each SRX Series Firewall
    Routing Engine (RE) - Memory usage Percentage of RE memory used by each SRX Series Firewall
    Service Processing Unit (SPU) - CPU usage Percentage of SPU CPU used by each SRX Series Firewall
    Service Processing Unit (SPU) - Memory usage Percentage of SPU memory used by each SRX Series Firewall
    Current sessions Number of current flow sessions
  3. Click Ok.

    The values are updated for monitoring the SRX Series Firewalls. On the Monitor page, you can view the widgets displaying device parameters under the Dashboard tab or the Resources tab. For more information, see Monitor SRX Series Firewalls in CSDS Groups.
