- Verify every 10G ULL CC for both MIAX Options and MIAX Pearl Options by logging into every subscribed application intended for each CC (i.e. establish application level socket connections to MEO, MEI, FOI, CTD, etc., for all ports, across all intended CCs) and verify the login.
- Confirm heartbeat receipt for both the A & B Market Data for all subscribed multicast feeds across each intended firm CC.
