The Connect IT 16/48 local file system
The Connect IT 16/48 local file system has approximately 4.5 GB of space available for storing files,
such as alternative configuration files and firmware versions, and release files, such as cellular module
images. The writable directories within the filesystem are:
n
/tmp
n
/opt
n
/etc/config
Files stored in the /tmp directory do not persist across reboots. Therefore, /tmp is a good location to
upload temporary files, such as files used for firmware updates. Files stored in /opt and /etc/config do
persist across reboots, but are deleted if a factory reset of the system is performed. See
configuration and reset to factory defaults
for more information.
