3 Configuring Global Settings<br />
Verifying Connectivity<br />
Overview To complete the <strong>CME</strong> <strong>Gateway</strong> installation, <strong>CME</strong> Group may request that you pass<br />
several connectivity tests with <strong>CME</strong> Group’s host machines. The customer must<br />
schedule specific dates and times with <strong>CME</strong> Group to perform these tests:<br />
• Ping and Telnet Tests<br />
• <strong>CME</strong> Group’s Feed Tests<br />
• Price Server Startup Test<br />
You perform these tests after configuring the <strong>TT</strong> <strong>Gateway</strong> (e.g., with NT User<br />
information, product tables, etc.), but before starting <strong>TT</strong>Chron (refer to <strong>TT</strong><br />
<strong>Gateway</strong> Architecture SAM Version 7.X).<br />
Once you complete all tests with the <strong>CME</strong> Group, start <strong>TT</strong>Chron. <strong>TT</strong>Chron starts<br />
your <strong>Gateway</strong> as scheduled in ttchron.ini.<br />
Ping Tests You perform the ping and telnet tests to verify network connectivity to the <strong>CME</strong><br />
Group host servers.<br />
To complete the ping and telnet tests, the customer must ping and telnet to the<br />
various IP addresses on <strong>CME</strong> Group’s network that the <strong>CME</strong> Group distributes.<br />
The <strong>CME</strong> Group distributes the MDP and iLink IP addresses that you must ping<br />
(labeled IPAddress in the procedure below). The <strong>CME</strong> Group usually sends this<br />
information via E-mail to the customer. There are two types of IP addresses that<br />
you may need to test (each type usually consists of a pair of IP addresses):<br />

Note: If this is a new membership (i.e., new <strong>TT</strong> customer), no one can trade through the <strong>TT</strong><br />
<strong>Gateway</strong> until you successfully complete these tests.<br />
• MDP Replay Host<br />
• Host Server IP addresses: Host Server IP addresses are the IP addresses<br />
that you use in the order server sections ([order_session_#]) of the<br />
hostinfo.cfg file. These machines provide access to the trading host for<br />
order submission.<br />
A ping test fails if the command window states the request has timed out.<br />
To ping <strong>CME</strong> Group:<br />
1. Open a command window.<br />
2. Type: ping IPAddress<br />
3. Type: ping IPAddress<br />
To troubleshoot ping connectivity:<br />
1. If you are unable to ping any of the machines at <strong>CME</strong> Group, verify that the<br />
customer’s network setup is correct. If the customer’s network is correctly set<br />
up, call <strong>CME</strong> Group.<br />
2. If you can connect to one but not the other IP address, call <strong>CME</strong> Group. The<br />
problem is most likely on their end.
