A complete test of flash memory may also be carried out using the router’s
built-in diagnostics. See “Diagnostics” on page 106 for more information.
The diagnostics flash memory test will erase the entire flash contents.
CompactFlash
AR725 and AR745 routers have a CompactFlash slot on their front panel.
Compact flash cards increase the flash memory available for file storage.
CompactFlash files can be manipulated using the command line interface. Any
type of data, including releases, patches, GUIs and configurations can be stored
on compact flash cards. However, release, patch, and GUI files cannot be run
directly from CompactFlash. These files must be loaded into either NVS or
onboard Flash.
Data contained on compact flash cards can be read with any compliant reader.
Do not keep sensitive data, for example keys, on compact flash cards.
CompactFlash functionality is supported by software Release 2.5.1 and later.
Three compact flash cards have been approved for use with AR725 and AR745
routers:
■
AT-CF032A-00 COMPFLASH 32MB
■
AT-CF064A-00 COMPFLASH 64MB
■
AT-CF128A-00 COMPFLASH 128MB
