[c-nsp] Determining amount of physically installed memory in a Cisco

If I call correctly, the method of adding the two numbers together to
determine the total amount of memory, does not for all hardware
platforms. But this is the most common method, I believe.

What I'm looking for is a single pollable value, not a text-parsing way.

Thanks,
Marcel
