Table 1-1 lists the memory components on the GRP. Figure 1-5 shows the location
of the DRAM and Flash SIMM on the GRP.
DRAM
The EDO DRAM on the GRP stores routing tables, protocols, and network
accounting applications, and runs the Cisco IOS software. The standard (default)
GRP DRAM configuration is 64 MB of EDO DRAM, which you can upgrade to
256 MB. Table 1-2 lists the DRAM configurations and upgrades.
