How does the “High memory usage” alert for Palo Alto's work?

Question:

I got the “High memory usage” alert on a Palo Alto firewall. My Palo Alto Networks resident engineer is asking:
1. How often is the info being read/polled by Indeni?

2. Is this going via API or SSH?

3. Please provide the SSH command or API being used and how the MP memory is being calculated.
