Eurex Clearing Readiness Newsflash | EurexOTC Clear Technology: Reminder for FPML, Trade Entry API, and Margin Calculator API certificates renewal dates

Dear Client,

As announced in Eurex Clearing Readiness Newsflash from 19 July 2023, Clearing Members are reminded of the renewal of the SSL/TLS certificates on the AMQP brokers used for the FpML, Margin Calculator, and Trade Entry interfaces in production environment on 23 September 2023.

The new certificates will replace the existing certificates, which are approaching their expiration date, and will therefore lose validity once changed to the new certificates. Connection attempts using the old certificate will then be rejected.

The new public keys are available for download in the Member Section of Deutsche Börse Group under the following path:

Resources > Eurex Clearing > Documentation & Files > EurexOTC Clear > System documentation > Interfaces > Simulation or Production (depending on the relevant certificate)

If required, Clearing Members can test connectivity in the production environment. The connection test will be conducted on Saturday, 23 September 2023 between 12:00 and 15:00 CEST when dedicated support will be available. In case of any issues, please contact your Technical Key Account Manager directly via the VIP number or send an e-mail to cts@deutsche-boerse.com.

Please also note that heartbeat/ping requests will be unavailable due to the planned maintenance in the backend within this timeframe. However, it will be possible to connect to the broker which should be sufficient for confirming the successful certificate replacement.

More details about the SSL/TLS configuration of different AMQP libraries can be found on our dedicated Support page on the Eurex Clearing website in the following location:
