Good afternoon,
Looking for some insight here. I already have a TAC case opened, but was hoping someone on here might have experienced something like this before and could provide some information. We are seeing numerous CPU spikes on a daily basis all coming from the fpapps process. I know fpapps is used for L2/L3 connectivity to the controller, but don't know what could be causing these constant spikes. They happen at random intervals, but are always exactly 60 seconds, up until recently we had a few that were 180 seconds. I'm hoping someone can help, below are the most recent logs:

Controller is 7220 with AOS 6.3.1.16. Handling about 512 APs and around 3700 clients. This appears to have been happening for at least a month before it was noticed, not currently affecting client or APs, but don't want to get to that point.
Thanks.
