Router Memory

Types of Memory

The Cisco 1721 router has the following types of memory:

•Dynamic random-access memory (DRAM)—This is the main storage

memory for the router. DRAM is also called working storage. It contains the

dynamic configuration information. The Cisco 1721 router stores a working

copy of the Cisco IOS software, dynamic configuration information, and

routing table information in DRAM.

•Nonvolatile random-access memory (NVRAM)—This type of memory

contains a backup copy of your configuration. If the power is lost or the router

is turned off, this backup copy enables the router to return to operation

without reconfiguration.

•Flash memory—This special kind of erasable, programmable memory

contains a copy of the Cisco IOS software. The Flash memory structure can

store multiple copies of the Cisco IOS software. You can load a new level of

the operating system in every router in your network and then, when

convenient, upgrade the whole network to the new level.

Amounts of Memory

The Cisco 1721 router supports a maximum of 32MB Flash memory and 128MB

DRAM. Use the show version command to view the amount of DRAM, NVRAM,

and Flash memory stored in your router. The following example of the

show version command output displays the amount of memory in this router.

Unpacking the Router

Table 1-5 lists the items that come with your router. All these items are in the

accessory kit that is inside the box that your router came in.

Additional Required Equipment

Depending on your local network and on which Cisco WICs you install in your

router, you will require other items, listed in Table 1-6, to complete your router

installation.

Cisco 1721 Router Hardware Installation Guide

78-13834-02

Table 1-6 Additional Required Equipment

Equipment When You Use It

Ethernet hub A hub connects pieces of network equipment (including the

Cisco 1721 router) to create a network. You can use a 10-, 100-, or

10/100-Mbps hub with the Cisco 1721 router.

Ethernet switch A switch connects pieces of network equipment (including the

Cisco 1721 router) to create a network. You can use a 10-, 100-, or

10/100-Mbps switch with the Cisco 1721 router.

Phillips screwdriver Although the WICs use thumbscrews, you might need a Phillips

screwdriver to loosen the WIC slot cover.

Cisco WIC In order to make a WAN connection, the Cisco 1721 router must

have a supported WIC installed. The router supports up to two

cards. You can order the cards when you order the router, and they

will be installed for you. Or, you can order the cards separately, after

you receive the router, and then install them yourself.

Straight-through RJ-45-to-RJ-45

cable

This cable connects the router to the Ethernet LAN and connects the

WICs to various WAN services, including ISDN, T1/FT1, and

56-kbps services. You will need one cable for each connection that

requires this cable type.

Serial cable This cable connects a serial card to serial services. You must order

this cable from Cisco. For detailed information about serial cable

types, refer to the Cisco WAN Interface Cards Hardware

Installation Guide, which comes with every card.

NT-1 Some ISDN service providers require a Network Termination 1

(NT-1) device to connect an ISDN S/T port to the ISDN line.

Asynchronous modem Connect a modem to the AUX port on the router when you want to

configure the router from a remote location.
