NVRAM Non volatile RAM, similar to Hard Disk It is also known as Permanent Storage or Startup Configuration. Generally size of NVRAM is 32 KB. RAM It is also known as Temporary Storage or running Configuration. Minimum size of RAM is 2MB. RAM is greater than NVRAM is the Router Processor Motorola Processor 70 Mhz, RISC based processor

The Router Boot Sequence: 1. The router performs a POST. The POST tests the hardware to verify that all components of the device are operational and present. 2. The bootstrap program is responsible for finding where each IOS program is located and then loading the file. By default, the IOS software is loaded from flash memory in all Cisco routers. 3. The IOS software looks for a valid configuration file stored in NVRAM. This file is called startup-config and is only there if an administrator copies the runningconfig file into NVRAM. 4. If a startup-config file is in NVRAM, the router will copy this file and place it in RAM and call the file running-config. The router will use this file to run the router.
