CME has been converting our member firms and related software vendors and exchanges to IP topology and our new network. The software and hardware that supports our old network must be retired at the end of this month. We cannot continue to support the current dial-up hunt group without incurring excessive costs to our IT department. After May 24^th, RJE will go away. Therefore, we need to switch all dial-up users that send us the daily reportable information to our secured Internet portal site by May 24^th, 2002. Through the portal you will be able to transmit your regulatory data file to our secured FTP server.

Please click on the attached link for more detailed instructions on how to set-up your secured access to our portal and FTP your reportable (large trader data) to the CME each business day.

Thank you.
