The ASX has prepared infrastructure to support the CSP Customer Development Environment (CDE) over ASX Net. Note that connection to CDE is also available over the Internet using Site to Site IPSec VPN.

ASX Net is a high-bandwidth, low latency, Australia-wide network, enabling ASX customers to connect with each other as well as the Australian and global financial markets.

ASX Net is a point-to-point optical (dark) fibre network, achieving high degrees of availability and performance. The point-to-point nature of the network ensures fixed network routes and consistent performance. Network infrastructure is minimised to help create a network free of complexity, therefore improving the overall availability of the service.

ASX Net is provisioned, monitored and managed by the ASX. This includes initial installation and any upgrades required as customer or community platforms and systems change. The network is monitored 24x7 from the Network Operations Centre (NOC) in the Australian Liquidity Centre (ALC) and offers the redundancy and stability required by the Australian financial community.

ASX Net is a hub-and-spoke design centred on two data centres situated in Sydney. These data centres house all of the ASX’s critical systems and provide a fully redundant service to customer ASX Net sites. ASX Net has over 150 sites nationally, with redundant data centre Points of Presence (PoPs) in Melbourne, Brisbane, Adelaide and Perth as well as a global reach with high speed links to London, Singapore, Hong Kong and Chicago.

Historically, ASX Net has been used to carry settlement and clearing traffic on the ASX’s exchanges along with associated ASX services. More recently however, ASX Net has interconnected the entire Australian financial community including buy and sell side participants, data vendors, third party service providers, other major financial data centres and even other exchanges.

As a material, new service and technology to ASX both a new VRF (Virtual Routing and forward) and Virtual Lan will be implemented to CSP to provide segregation from other ASX services.
