This lab provides practice using internal and Personal Computer Memory Card International Association (PCMCIA) Flash memory on a Cisco 3600 Series Router.

In this lab, you will determine basic device information with the show version command. You will review flash information with the commands show flash and dir slot0. You will then copy a system image from internal Flash memory to PCMCIA-card memory. You will also configure the router to boot from the PCMCIA Flash memory, and verify that this works.

These steps will help introduce the Flash environment on Cisco 3600 Series routers, and will allow you to practice some basic memory management commands.
