SYNOPSIS

show flash contents

DESCRIPTION

The FB2500 uses internal Flash memory to store various items of data and software program code. A Flash memory is divided into blocks, with a typical block size of 128KiB. Each item that the FB2500 stores in the Flash memory occupies a distinct set of one or more blocks, depending on the size of the item.

This command lists what is stored in the Flash, in order of ascending block numbers.

For each item, the following information is printed :-

  • "Blocks" : the block number(s) occupied by the item.
  • "Type" : the type of information in this item
  • "Seq/Flashtime" : sequence-number or timestamp of when the item was written to the Flash memory.
  • "Prio/Pen" : cost metric **TBC?**
  • "Name" : for software, this is the name of the image, which will include the version number
