Flash | The first number shows how many megabytes of the flash the ZyWALL is using. |
|
|
Memory | The first number shows how many megabytes of the heap memory the ZyWALL is |
| using. Heap memory refers to the memory that is not used by ZyNOS (ZyXEL |
| Network Operating System) and is thus available for running processes like NAT, |
| VPN and the firewall. |
| The second number shows the ZyWALL's total heap memory (in megabytes). |

| turns from green to red when the maximum is being approached. |
