FortiGate Next Generation Firewall utilizes purpose-built security processors and threat intelligence security services from FortiGuard labs to deliver top-rated protection and high performance, including encrypted traffic.
Description This article describes the way to find out which process runs on which CPU core.
Solution 1) Access to the FortiGate via SSH.
2) Execute a CLI command to see process list on the CLI.
# diagnose sys top
(global) # diagnose sys top Run Time: 0 days, 7 hours and 50 minutes 0U, 0N, 0S, 100I, 0WA, 0HI, 0SI, 0ST; 2012T, 681F ipshelper 314 S < 0.0 3.9 cmdbsvr 124 S 0.0 3.3 ipsengine 315 S < 0.0 3.0 httpsd 379 S 0.0 3.0 miglogd 144 S 0.0 2.4 pyfcgid 284 S 0.0 2.3 httpsd 209 S 0.0 2.2 httpsd 380 S 0.0 2.0 reportd 163 S 0.0 2.0 httpsd 317 S 0.0 1.8 pyfcgid 286 S 0.0 1.8 forticron 155 S 0.0 1.7 httpsd 656 S 0.0 1.6 cw_acd 180 S 0.0 1.4 httpsd 1338 S 0.0 1.4 miglogd 196 S 0.0 1.4
3) Two examples to find out which process runs on which CPU core, based on above process lists.
ipsengine.
# diagnose sys process dump 315 | grep Cpu Cpus_allowed: 1 <---- 0001 (converted by binary). Cpus_allowed_list: 0 <---- CPU no. 0 (1st from the far right is “1”).
miglogd.
# diagnose sys process dump 196 | grep Cpu Cpus_allowed: 2 <----- 0010 (converted by binary). Cpus_allowed_list: 1 <----- CPU no. 1 (2nd from the far right is “1”).
