Connectivity via Cross Connect

Coinbase Derivatives Exchange (CDE) participants can establish cross-connects in the facilities detailed under CDE Locations. Multicast connection using the BGP routing protocol with PIM

​
How to Connect

  1. Contact the CDE team about establishing a private co-located fiber connection.
    The CDE team will: a. Issue a letter of authorization (LOA) allowing you, the participant, to connect into CDE equipment. :::info Redundant Connections Each fiber connects to physical equipment that is completely redundant from the other connections. ::: b. Assign 2 IP address per side:
    • 1 address range for BGP peering.
    • 1 address range for connecting to CDE that is advertised by the participant.
    c. Assign a private ASN for BGP peering. Participants can use a public ASN as long as it is owned by them.
  2. Configure BGP with all parameters provided by CDE.
  3. Optionally, configure PIM and RP addresses to receive multicast market data. RP Addresses for each connection are provided by CDE.

​
Connectivity via Internet

Clients may connect to select Coinbase Derivatives APIs via the internet. This solution is recommended for testing or non-latency sensitive systems. Please note that Coinbase Derivatives only accepts SSL/TLS1 encrypted connections for internet-based connections. See IP Addressing section for target host names. Clients are encouraged to whitelist both Production and DR public addresses on their firewalls.

Clients may connect to Coinbase Derivatives Exchange via AWS PrivateLink. This allows for some of the benefits of private connectivity without having to cross connect directly in the datacenter. Private connectivity via AWS PrivateLink offers reduced latency and a more stable connection when compared to the Public Internet. It should be noted that for the lowest latency and most stable connection possible, Colocation Cross Connects are still recommended. Each PrivateLink has multiple availability zones and regions that are supported. However, for the most optimal results using the primary region and availability zone is recommended.
