Figure: CME Globex Hub - Tokyo Connectivity
...
Customers are responsible for establishing connections from their site to each of the the CME Globex Hub - Tokyo sites.
All IP packets destined for CME Group must be sourced from the CME Group-assigned private address space.
Should customers decide to place the server behind another network device, they will be responsible for network address translation.
CME Globex Hub Connectivity Procedures
Upon successful validation and site acceptance by CME Group, the customer is responsible for the following procedures:
Activating the multicast stream
Configuring the customer application on the arbitration server
Configuring routers
Configuring the rendezvous point’s IP address
Configuring a fixed path between each router and corresponding CME data center
Validating that the listener server is receiving data from the correct source
Routing Requirements
Customer routers must be capable of using advanced TCP/IP Protocols including BGP and multicast, specifically PIM Sparse Mode.
BGP routing must be used on the routers terminating CME Group connections.
It is recommended that customers use a routing protocol between their routers to provide automatic failover.
All IP packets destined for CME Group must be sourced from CME Group-assigned private address space.
Multicast PIM Sparse Mode must be used.
Restrictions
The following restrictions apply to connectivity:
No site-to-site connectivity.
No direct server connectivity into CME Globex.
Terminating the circuit on a Layer 2 device is not allowed.
CME Group will not accept traffic sourced from any customer’s public IP space.
Only one Market Data Platform data feed per router is allowed.
Customer hardware must be capable of supporting quote streams (e.g., PIM sparse mode).
