When using "sh version", the memory information will bedisplayed, such as the sizes of RAM, NVRAM and FLASH.
Are they all upgradable and if yes, with what type of memory chip? It seems NVRAM is not upgradable, right?
ROM seems not showing with this command...
In "sh ver" you get the following lines
cisco ------------------------------------------- with 61440K/4096K bytes of memory
16384K bytes of processor board System flash (Read/Write)On this particular router the 61440+4096 is the dram, ie 64 meg. The 16384 is the flash (where the IOS/running-config is stored). Both are removable chips inside the router that can be changed. I believe some of the smaller routers can't be upgraded (soho range).

ps - check out ebay and you'll find plenty of memory for sale.
