How to estimate a memory usage

[douglas767]

Hi to all

I like to know how to calculate how much memory is necessary to my cisco pix 515 ur with IOS 6.3 (4). Actualy, it is factory default configuration with 32 MB RAM. and the management tool report a usage of 30 MB. I will upgrade my link (actualy 768 Kbps) to 2Mbps, I have 14 VPN connections.

Thanks in advance,

Douglas

If you're simply beefing up the WAN bandwidth and not really adding VPN tunnels, additional rules, additional NAT etc, you may find you could get by with 32mb.

That said, 30ms is sailing a bit near the wind and I'd seriously consider doubling it to 64mb
