Product Number: CSC-MC+=
The CSC-MC+ is an add-on applique card of Flash memory storage. With the CSC-MC+, system software images may be stored, booted, and rewritten as necessary. The Flash card connects to all the configurations (CSC-2E2T, CSC-1E1S, and so forth) of the revision 3 multiport communications interface card (MCI-3), to the CSC-2R(1R) Token Ring card, and to the Environmental Monitor card (CSC-ENVM). The CSC-MC+ card replaces the nonvolatile random access memory (NVRAM) card (CSC-MC) that can be used in all of the A, M, and C chassis platforms.
Following is a list of the features of the CSC-MC+ Flash memory card:
 | The Flash card can be remotely loaded with multiple system software images
through a Trivial File Transfer Protocol (TFTP) operation.
| The Flash memory card can be used as a TFTP server.
| The Flash memory card provides 4 megabytes (MB) of Flash memory storage.
| The CSC-MC+ allows a router to be booted manually or automatically from a
system software image stored in Flash memory. Booting directly from
read-only memory (ROM) and booting across the network from a TFTP file
server are still available options.
| The CSC-MC+ memory card can be used by all the A+, A, M, and C chassis
platforms and does not require a chassis card slot.
| The CSC-MC+ provides write-protection against accidental erasure or
reprogramming of the Flash memories.
| The CSC-MC+ can store up to 32 kilobytes (KB) of configuration memory
information in NVRAM.
| The NVRAM chips on the CSC-MC+ card have built-in lithium batteries for
NVRAM backup in case of power failure. These batteries are designed to last
ten years and store data (unpowered) for five years. | |
