Please note the following regarding the test:
• Participant procedures and access methods are not changed as a result of the BCP test;
• Participants are not required to perform any configurations for the BCP test;
• ASX will be validating access to each system as part of the failover process, Participant validation is not required;
• ASX is running each key system in reverse configuration, meaning that full system redundancy is available for the duration of the BCP test;
• All Austraclear, ASX Collateral and Swift BCP systems are full replica environments, meaning there will be no service degradation as a result of the BCP test; and
• ASX is not failing over any aspect of the network access infrastructure solution.
