Physical Ports

The Physical Ports tool shows a firm’s physical connections to Cboe. Click Physical Ports to view a page similar to below that lists all of a firm’s physical connections.

The Connection ID is the cable ID for the connection that the data center provides once the initial cabling is complete. Data Center refers to the data center where the connection resides. For our primary data centers this will either be N4 (for NY4) or N5 (for NY5). Connections in our disaster recovery data center will be CH1 or CH4 (Cermak). The Interface IP Address is the address on the interface on the Cboe device. The billing Start and End dates are the dates that billing began and ended for a connection.

Double click the line for a connection to bring up a window with the market data subscriptions that have been flowing over that connection. The Feed column will match the name of the feed from the appropriate market data technical specification.
