Access to Eurex Exchange’s T7 trading architecture via the Eurex ETI interface, Eurex FIX interface and the Eurex Trader GUI via an internet connection (optional) is currently secured via an automatic network validation mechanism which ensures that participants access the system from authorised IP networks and/or IP addresses only.
To further strengthen the access security of the T7 trading architecture, Eurex Exchange will enhance the existing mechanism for ensuring the validity of leased line connectivity to include automatic network validation also for Eurex Exchange’s T7 GUI. The enhanced functionality will be activated in Eurex Exchange’s T7 simulation environment effective 6 May 2015 and in production environment effective 1 June 2015.
The automatic network validation will only permit access via leased lines from the participants’ networks and from any associated Service Providers which are maintained in the Member Section.
The automatic network validation enhancement for leased line connections does not require any activity on the participants’ side, however following the activation of the enhanced functionality, a connection from an unknown IP network will be rejected with the error message “subnet validation failed”.
