4 Introduction 1. Introduction This document describes the required technical measures to be able to login and use the Eurex Clearing GUIs. C7 Derivatives Clearing GUI EurexOTC Clear GUI EurexOTC Clear Margin Calculator GUI Securities Clearing GUI 1.1 Intended Audience For a successful setup the Member s IT department should take note of this document. 1.2 Connectivity Basically, access to the Eurex Clearing GUIs is available via Internet GUI channel on leased lines To access the C7 Derivatives Clearing GUI it is necessary to request access to C7 beforehand. All details (Technical access / Interfaces to Eurex Clearing / Clearing system usage fees) can be found on the Eurex Clearing webpage: > Technology > Connectivity alternatives 1.3 Enhanced security features For the Clearing Web GUI a two factor authentication is implemented (see Chapter Access setup two-factor authentication process for more details): 1st factor: Certificate authentication - used to secure the connection between the Member and Eurex Clearing on a Business Unit level (MemberID level). The certificates are also used to distinguish between the simulation and production environments. 2nd factor: Username and password authentication - used to login to the Eurex Clearing Web GUI Services (UserID level). For the C7 Service, a third factor is implemented as well, which is based on network addresses Network security The feature is currently completely configurable and activated only for the C7 Derivatives Clearing GUI. Internet access: Per default any user of the given Member is permitted to access the application from any IP address. If the Member wants to restrict the default access, a list of IP addresses can be entered in the Member Section. Then it will only be possible to access the application from these explicitly stated IP addresses. Internet access for the given Member can be completely blocked by setting the corresponding radio-button. For the connection via Internet the Member can choose one of the following options: Access Guide New Clearing GUI Web Systems Page 4

5 Introduction Allow Internet access without restrictions (default) Completely disable Internet access Allow Internet access for certain IP addresses given by the Member Leased Line access: Eurex Clearing allows access from the Member leased line networks and from any associated Service Provider respectively. For the connection via leased line the GUI is checking the incoming IP address against the known network information for the corresponding Member. In case a Member connects through a Service Provider, the IP address is also checked against the known networks of the Service Provider. This implies that any Service Provider relationship needs to be maintained correctly in the Member Section if the Member is accessing any of the Eurex Clearing GUIs via the network of a Service Provider. The relationships can be registered via "Technical Connection / Requests & Configuration / New Request / Provider / New Provider / GUI Channel". 1.4 Browser requirements In order to connect successfully to the Eurex Clearing GUIs and to ensure a smooth service it is recommended to use one of the following web browsers to connect to the GUI: Windows 7: IE 11.0 (or higher) or Firefox Latest ESR (extended support release). Usage of Firefox is strongly recommended. Linux: Firefox Latest ESR (enterprise service release) Note: C7 Derivatives Clearing GUI also supports Google Chrome on best effort basis. The required browser settings are: Enable session cookie handling Allow JavaScript execution Support security protocols TLS 1.0, TLS 1.1 and TLS 1.2 Access Guide New Clearing GUI Web Systems Page 5

6 Introduction IT-Security Patches are highly recommended. Note: See Appendix D Browser setup details for further information about browser settings. Note: The network proxy settings must be configured according to the local network rules given at the Member-side. 1.5 Delete certificates generated before April 15 th, 2015 Already uploaded, self-signed certificates which are used for one of the Eurex Clearing GUIs can still be used. Anyhow, we strongly recommend replacing them with new certificates which are signed by Gruppe Deutsche Boerse CA. Certificates signed by Gruppe Deutsche Boerse CA will be required in the future to use additional features. This means, the User ID Configuration section will eventually become obsolete. To delete self-signed certificates Technical User Administrators follow these steps: 1. Log in to the Member Portal 2. Click on Technical Connection 3. Select Technical User Administration 4. Select Eurex Clearing GUIs 5. Select the tab UserID Configuration 6. Mark the user ID by CN 7. Click Button Delete User to delete the certificate Access Guide New Clearing GUI Web Systems Page 6

7 Access setup two-factor authentication process 2. Access setup two-factor authentication process The two-factor authentication process requires the usage of client certificates to establish and ensure an encrypted and exclusive connection between the Clearing Member and Eurex Clearing. Certificate authentication is required for both Internet and Leased Line access. Every Member may use only one certificate per Member ID to allow many users to authenticate by installing the same certificate into many users web browsers. However, Members may use more than one certificate according to their compliance requirements. An example would be a short term certificate for temporary user group, that needs to be revoked earlier than other certificates. Additionally, every single user of a Member has to authenticate himself individually by providing his individual username and password (UserID) in order to be able to log into the GUI st factor: Certificate authentication To request a certificate fill out the certificate request form (downloadable from and send it to ClearingCertificates@eurexclearing.com. There are two options to gain a valid certificate OBCR on behalf certificate request CSR self created certificate request (see Appendix C OpenSSL usage for details) OBCR on behalf certificate request means to request a certificate from Eurex Clearing which can be downloaded from Member Section and imported into the web browser(s). The certificate file contains an encrypted private key. CSR self created certificate request means to generate a private key and create a certificate signing request (CSR) which is sent to Eurex Clearing for signing. The file with the signed certificate can be downloaded from the Member Section and has to be merged with the private key. After that it can be imported into the web browser(s). Both options have to be proceeded accordingly following those steps: Ste p OBCR CSR 1 Fill out the certificate request form (see Chapter 2.1.1) 2 - Create a certificate request (see Chapter 5) 3 Send the certificate request form to ClearingCertificates@eurexclearing.com (see Chapter 2.1.3) Send the certificate request form including the CSR to ClearingCertificates@eurexclearing.com (see Chapter 2.1.3) 4 Download the file with the signed certificate (see Chapter 2.1.4) 5 - Merge certificate file with private key (see Chapter 5.5) 6 Install certificate to browser(s) (see Chapter 2.1.6) 8 Access the GUI (see Chapter 2.1.7) IMPORTANT: No login to the GUI is yet possible as username and password are required for a successful login!

12 Access setup two-factor authentication process Step 7: Access GUI OBCR Required CSR Required The Member accesses the corresponding Eurex Clearing GUI login screen via web browser by entering the URL. See Chapter 3 for URL details nd factor: User Login to Eurex Clearing GUIs To log in to the corresponding Clearing GUI following steps are required: 1. Enter the provided URL directly into the web browser address bar. 2. Enter username and password in the login window and click the Login button. In case of a successful login the application main window appears. If the login was not successful, an error message will be displayed to the user. After several unsuccessful login attempts the account is automatically locked. For C7 Derivative Clearing GUI the user needs to contact his security administrator or the hotline (see chapter 4) to reset the password. For other GUIs customer support must be contacted in order to reset the password (tel. +49 (0) , clearingdata@eurexclearing.com) Change of password during first login It is necessary to change the initial password at the first login (within 7 days after receiving the initial password) or when the current password has expired (passwords expire every 90 days) and has been re-set (the new password has to be changed by the user within 24 hours). The following rules apply when creating a new password: Must be a minimum of eight characters long Must not match a previously used password Must contain at least one UPPER CASE and one LOWER CASE character Access Guide New Clearing GUI Web Systems Page 12

13 Access setup two-factor authentication process Must contain at least one numeric character Must contain at least one non-alphanumeric character In order to change the password the user needs to go to the change password/password Reset screen. The username, the old password and a new one must be provided there Logout from Eurex Clearing GUIs Click the Logout button on the GUI main window to log out. The GUI login screen will appear. The system automatically performs a logout after a period of idle time which has been configured per application. An automated logout is typically performed after 30 minutes of inactivity. 2.3 Access revocation If a member needs to revoke a certificate, the certificate request form has to be used. OBCR: Fill out the certificate request form, select cancel/revoke and enter the common names (CN) of the certificates to be revoked. The form can be obtained via > Resources > Forms > Search Term Eurex Clearing GUI Certificate Request/Revocation Form or from Customer Technical Support CSR: Fill out the certificate signing request form, select cancel/revoke and enter the common names (CN) of the certificates to be revoked..
