PRP NVRAM
Non-volatile Random Access Memory (NVRAM) provides 2 MB of memory for 
system configuration files, software register settings, and environmental 
monitoring logs. Built-in lithium batteries retain the contents of NVRAM for a 
minimum of 5 years. NVRAM is not user configurable and cannot be upgraded in 
the field.
PRP Flash Memory
Use flash memory to store multiple Cisco IOS software and microcode images 
that you can use to operate the router. You can download new images to flash 
memory over the network (or from a local server) to replace an existing image, or 
to add it as an additional image. The router can be booted (manually or 
automatically) from any of the stored images in flash memory.
Flash memory also functions as a Trivial File Transfer Protocol (TFTP) server to 
allow other servers to boot remotely from the stored images, or to copy them into 
their own flash memory. 
The system uses two types of flash memory: 
  •
Onboard flash memory (called bootflash)—Contains the Cisco IOS boot 
image
  •
Flash memory disks (or cards)—Contain the Cisco IOS software image
 lists supported flash disk sizes and Cisco part numbers.
