Gap Request Message Fields

The Gap Request message is used by a user’s process to request retransmission of a sequenced message (or messages) by one of Cboe’s gap servers.

The Gap Request message for Cboe One Options is identical to the Multicast Pitch Gap Request message. The Unit field should be set to 0 since the Cboe One Options feed is not unitized.
