8 LCH.Clearnet Ltd LCH.Clearnet Ltd Network Connectivity Guide () 2.2 Connectivity Resilience A GMA standard access is constructed using two diversely provided telecom circuits connecting the Member site to LCH.Clearnet Ltd. In the standard configuration one network path is active and the other passive. Members can choose their network topology for standard connectivity. The following connectivity options are available: Silver Single Member site connecting to RadianzNet via two diversely provided access circuits. Split-Site Silver 1 Dual Member sites, accessed via two circuits with one circuit to each site. Gold - Dual Member sites, the site accessed via two circuits, and the site via a single circuit. Platinum Dual Member sites, each connected via dual diversely provided circuits. Bronze Single circuit access. For sites where dual circuit access is required this is always provided (where available) by two different Telecom Path Providers and connecting to physically separate POPs (network Points of Presence) on RadianzNet Network Security Capacity Logical security is enforced by VPN Encryption Gateways located on Member premises. Each GMA network path has its own distinct VPN Encryption Gateway. Members can connect via RadianzNet to LCH.Clearnet Ltd services in a scalable manner in 2Mbps steps from 2Mbps to 10Mbps. constantly monitors bandwidth utilisation at each RadianzNet POP to ensure threshold limits are not exceeded. provides bandwidth allocation on the last mile to guarantee service delivery to subscribers on RadianzNet Local Access Providers In order to provide physical path separation utilise multiple telecom path providers for local loop access. For LCH.Clearnet Limited the prime suppliers for local access circuitry are COLT & Verizon Business, with a third alternative being BT 2. 1 Members must provide Layer 2 connectivity between their sites in order for this Silver option to function. 2 The precise choice of local access circuit suppliers will depend on geography and other factors.

Network connection policies This section describes LCH.Clearnet Ltd s policies with respect to a BT Radianz network connection. connects Members to the clearing service through its IP-based RadianzNet network. Policies will be updated when new applications, technologies and standards are agreed and implemented. 3.1 Common Member connectivity option Members requiring to connect to both LCH.Clearnet Ltd and LCH.Clearnet SA clearing services through GMA will require, subject to confirmation, a minimum bandwidth network path of 4Mbps; 2Mbps for each service. These network paths do not contend and are presented as unique physical ports on the VPN Terminating device, typically a Juniper. 3.2 connections will install, configure and monitor the network routers, switches and IPSec-based VPN devices at Member sites. The network provides access to the clearing service of LCH.Clearnet Ltd and is based on Cisco Systems network infrastructure platforms, which include Cisco routers at Member sites and LCH.Clearnet Ltd, primary and secondary data centres. A standard Member connection is two fibre leased-line circuits at a minimum speed of 2Mbps provided by diverse local loop Telecoms providers. The bandwidth is scalable from 2Mbps to 10Mbps in 2Mbps increments, dependent on users clearing activity profile. The minimum bandwidth requirements will be agreed between the parties concerned during further negotiations.
