External Compact Flash Memory Card
The MSM installed in the switch includes a PCMCIA slot (identified as compact flash in Figure 13 )
located next to the console port on the MSM. This slot accepts the 256 MB industrial grade compact
flash memory card, which can be used to download a new version of ExtremeWare XOS and a variety
of other functions, including capturing debug information and core dump files. Please see the
ExtremeWare XOS Concepts Guide for more information about how to use the external compact flash
memory card.
The memory card is a flat, smooth card that easily fits between your thumb and forefinger. The card has
a top and bottom side with a ridge protruding from the edge, as shown in
Figure 12 . The labeling on
the top of the card identifies it as a PCMCIA card.
