Specify the network configuration file with IceImpact::ApplicationOptions::xmlConfig

The network configuration details can be found here: ICE_Multicast_Connectivity_Guide.pdf

The configuration consists of three sections: TCP connection information, multicast groups, and market types definitions.

An application can work with multiple environments, (for example, UAT and Production). Each one has its own destination and source addresses.

Note

ICE may change the endpoint address or port. For the most recent data related to connections the user should reach out to ICE.

Info
A list of downloadable instrument definitions is defined by ICE permissions. A user should notify ICE if they want to get data from different multicast feeds (e.g. from ICE OTC).

Indicates whether a group is an Options group. Options only support price level books.

There is no Full Order Depth for predefined options markets.

isOptions="false"

Info
A MulticastGroup can't be Options and Fully Implied at the same time.

<allMarketTypes>

List of all the market types with their corresponding multicast groups. 
The multicast group name must match what has been specified in the multicast tag
More than one market type may be mapped to a multicast group channel.



<marketType>An entry of a market type with market type definition according to ICE

<multicastGroup>Reference to the multicast group used for getting data

...

All TCP messages including requests and responses are defined in ICE iMpact Multicast Feed Message Specification.

The static data can be received from ICE or loaded from a file configured with IceImpact::InstrumentLoadParams::filename. Acquiring static data occurs before processing multicast Market Data messages.

Multicast Groups

Multicast groups are for defining multicast feed channels for different markets. Each .

In the configuration, our application expects that each group should have two entries: fullOrderDepth and priceLevel. Each group defines feed IP addresses for incremental live and snapshot channels.

The example below shows a single entry in the multicast groups section:

Code Block
languagexml
<multicast>
			<group name="ICE Futures Europe Non Oil">
				<fullOrderDepth>
					<live ip="233.156.208.12" port="20012"/>
					<snapshot ip="233.156.208.13" port="20013"/>
				</fullOrderDepth>
				<priceLevel>
					<live ip="233.156.208.14" port="20014"/>
					<snapshot ip="233.156.208.15" port="20015"/>
				</priceLevel>
			</group>
</multicast>

Market Types Definitions

The ICE iMpact MD Handler gets a list of available instruments from the static data received from ICE and links it with configured data feeds.

Typically, a market type belongs to a single multicast group. In the case of options, a market type can belong to both a futures group and an options group.

The example below shows a market type reference:

Code Block
languagexml
titleExample
<allMarketTypes>
		<marketType code="0" name="Financial Gas">
			<multicastGroup name="ICE OTC"/>
			<multicastGroup name="ICE OTC FI"/>
			<multicastGroup name="ICE OTC Options"/>
		</marketType>
</allMarketTypes>

Market types that ICE currently supports can be found at the URL below. They can be used in Product Definition and Market Data Requests.
