4 Input/Output Controller Replacement Instructions
Input/Output Controller Description
Nonvolatile random-access memory (NVRAM) for storing the system configuration and
environmental monitoring logs. When replacing the I/O controller, be sure to copy the router’s
running configuration to a Trivial File Transfer Protocol (TFTP) file server so that you can
retrieve it later; otherwise, you will have to reenter your configuration manually. NVRAM uses
lithium batteries to maintain its contents when disconnected from power.
Two Personal Computer Memory Card International Association (PCMCIA) slots for Flash
Disks or Flash memory cards.
Flash memory SIMM and Flash Disks or Flash memory cards for storing the boot helper image
and the default Cisco IOS software image.
Boot ROM for storing sufficient code for booting the Cisco IOS software.
Two environmental sensors for monitoring the cooling air as it enters and leaves the chassis.
