The total memory is broken down into (allocated for) buffer memory and
system process memory;

60416K for buffer
5120K for system processes

Subject: Router memory question?? [1:2671]


Could someone please tell me why when you do a 'show version' you see the
memory displayed as two numbers.

------------------------------------ Example from my router
-------------------------------------------------
cisco 3640 (R4700) processor (revision 0x00) with 60416K/5120K bytes of
memory.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
----------------------------------------------

When I'm working out the memory in Mb I plus these two figures together and
divided by 1024. This gives me 64Mb, but why doesn't the router just say it
has 65536K bytes of memory?
