VCX Hardware Configurations
19
There are two basic configuration options, single-site and multi-site
systems. The hardware servers in each option type run the VCX operating
system. Currently supported hardware platforms include:
■
V7000-series systems with IBM X306m or IBM X346 servers
■
V6000 Integrated Branch Communications servers
■
V6100 Integrated Branch Communications servers
The next two sections describe typical examples of single-site and
multi-site configurations.
