Hardware/Software Requirements
The local brokerage houses that wish to connect to Bursa Trade DMA must have a CAP
(Certified Access Point). Only local brokers (PO/TP) are able to connect to Bursa
Trade.
Foreign brokerage houses that wish to connect to the Malaysian market would need to
connect their MMTP interface to one of our local brokerage houses.
The Exchange will allow a direct connection via FIX 4.4/FAST protocol should the
situation warrant it. This would be a result of a large number of brokers opting to
connect to Bursa Trade without a CAP. However, this will only be available in 2008.
The diagram below illustrates access to Bursa Trade using MMTP protocol. This is for
the first phase of DMA in 4Q of 2007, as the Bursa Trade Derivatives DMA platform will
be accessible only in MMTP and via a CAP.
From the first half of 2008, the Bursa Trade DMA platform will be accessible in MMTP
or FIX 4.4 format, via a CAP (see diagram above) or, if a large number of brokers are
in favour of it - without a CAP (see diagram below).
Network
The local brokerage house has to use a leased line to gain access to Bursa Trade’s
production environment.
To access the Bursa Trade DMA testing platform, the brokerage house will have to use
an ISDN line and to set up the ISDN router.
Please note that a brokerage house which already has a CAP to access to the
production platform cannot use the same CAP to access to the testing platform.
The ISDN router is recommended to have the following configuration:

Note (*): The DMA testing participants can opt for either the Cisco 1721 or CISCO 1841
model. Please note that CISCO has announced the end of life for the Cisco 1721 model
but will continue to support it. Bursa recommends DMA testing participants to opt for
the CISCO 1841 model if it is a new procurement. The IP address information & the
sample configuration of the ISDN router will be provided later and the ISDN dialup
speed will be limited to 128Kbps if it is equipped with one unit of ‘WIC-1B-S/T-V3’
module & one ISDN line.
The diagram below illustrates the network requirements and how a connection is
established to conduct testing.

platform will be accessible in both MMTP and FIX.
This means that the Bursa Trade DMA platform will be accessible in MMTP or FIX 4.4
via a CAP (see diagram above) or if a large number of brokers are requesting for this
solution, without CAP (see diagram below).
