Hello All
I have having issues with High CPU and Bandwidth Utilization.
I am not a network specialist and hence need help.
I have attached show tech-support output.
I think the issue with some kind of attach.
I used SDM to configure the router.
Please help
Thanks in advance

Alas, looks like your tech-support output missed one of the CPU spikes. If you could snag one when things are bad . . .
In the meantime, bold items might be removed/changed to reduce load:
interface Ethernet0
description $FW_OUTSIDE$$ETH-WAN$
ip address xx.xxx.42.169 255.255.255.224
ip access-group 101 in
ip verify unicast reverse-path <<== possible overkill
no ip redirects
no ip unreachables
no ip proxy-arp
ip nat outside
ip inspect SDM_LOW out
ip route-cache flow
half-duplex <<== if supported, full or auto would be nice
no cdp enable
!
interface FastEthernet0
description $FW_INSIDE$
ip address 192.168.0.1 255.255.255.0
ip access-group 100 in
no ip redirects
no ip unreachables
no ip proxy-arp
ip nat inside
ip nbar protocol-discovery <<== more possible overkill
ip route-cache flow
speed auto
half-duplex <<== if supported, full or auto would be nice
no cdp enable
service-policy output SDM-QoS-Policy-1 <<== from 10 to 10 (or 100), shouldn't be any need

Thanks for the reply joseph
I tried as you suggested and still i had problems , the cpu utilization was not going to 100% but was about 40-60 and bandwidth utilization was also like 30-30% and though internet was working fine i had issues with the VOIP phones on the network.
I tried disabling the firewall and its seems better now.
But this is not a good solution.
Can you please recommend me basic firewall setting which will not take the cpu load and also does not block the voice traffic.
Just a fyi VOIP required for my network to have 5060 to 6000 UDP ports open.
Can you please suggest me the configuration on that.
Thanks in advance

When you get the problem of bandwidth and high cpu I would suggest you to remote the NAT config and check if the problem is restored.
I have a feeling the NAT overload on this router model with crypto and other config would be causing the problem.
