My RT-AC66U nvram is at 64012 bytes (1524 left). The largest item is https_crt_file, which is 5800 bytes (/etc/cert.pem is 5416 bytes).

I would like to install a new cert.pem, but it would result in an nvram overflow.

Is there a way to move https_crt_file out of nvram to, for example, jffs or a usb disk?
 
You cannot move the web server certificate, the httpd daemon specifically retrieve it from nvram.
 
Thank you Merlin. Do you know if httpd supports ECDSA certificates? Those are smaller. I believe I tried one once, and it didn't work, but as you keep upgrading the versions of things, that may have changed.

No idea. I added support for more modern ciphers and TLS 1.2 a few years ago, but never looked at whether it also allowed httpd to work with ECDSA certs.
