CME Globex Hub Connectivity Procedures
Upon successful validation of the circuit 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).
- Customer equipment must be in CME approved space.
