SYSTEM SERVICES
The TOPEX MultiSwitch control equipment has powerful services capability. The MultiSwitch
application inquires the MultiSwitch database which communicates with the administration and
configuration web based interface.
Usually the database is installed on a different hardware platform than the MultiSwitch
application, in order to prevent supplementary charge of the MultiSwitch machine.
Although in certain cases, when the data base is not to large, the MultiSwitch application and
the data base are installed on the same hardware structure. The TOPEX MultiSwitch control
equipment can use either a Postgre SQL or a My SQL database.
