Hi,
does anyone know why the process “SPI” creates such a high CPU-Load? Sometimes it goes up to 100%
I have read this is LED related, but the CRS328 does not have a LED screen.
The config is 1:1 the same as on a replaced CRS326, this never showed SPI.
If I were an editor and someone asked me to evaluate which are the “slow” parts of the tale,
I wouldn’t have at least the text to read???
Starting from the fact that you have censored a private IP in the 10.x.x.x/8 range, already tells me so much about your knowledge.
But a book by the cover should not be evaluated, NO?
The question is, what is SPI at first? MT does not clarifiy?

Normally SPI stands for “Stateful Packet Inspection” but this device is configured as a simple switch, no NAT, no filter, no mangel… So SPI must be something different. Maybe someone knows?
@rextended, why are you never give a sensible reply? Whats wrong to hide my exact private IP scheme? All information I give, is the device is configured in accordance to RFC1918. https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc1918.html There is something like “Security through obscurity” https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Security_through_obscurity But I dont expect you know something.
Because you do not provide any sensible question?
If instead of wasting time unnecessarily obscuring 10.8x.x.x, and instead you published the export to see what made you “use” ( 
) the spi,
which maybe you hadn’t noticed, it was better.
Surely hiding your internal private IP, which only you use in the world, is a matter of national security.
I forgot how important it is to keep that highly traceable IP hidden that other 1000 devices have.
I see that you have already searched in the past …

SPI = https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Serial_Peripheral_Interface
sometimes when there is a high activity over storage SPI shows high usage
Provide a config export.
As chechito says. The flash memory sits on the SPI-bus. Are you using the flash memory for something?
