Memory leak on PIX 506e

[ccummings74403]

We are running a Cisco PIX 5063 6.3(3), 8 mb flash, 32mb RAM.

After a reboot, the pix will show about 15mb RAM used and 0-1% CPU.

Throughout the day, the memory used will creep up until it is maxed out at 32mb. This morning, I came in, and memory was at 32bm used and CPU was at 42%.

Any suggestions... anyone?

Thanks in advance.

Chris, there could be several factors for this, most common one is to check duplex tranmission on the inside/outside interfaces and ensure both are hard coded for speed and duplex as well as what devices they connect to.

This link provides other factors that causes high cpu and memmory.
