Post From: Sierra's DTC Server (and client) - historical data connection

Based upon the configuration of the DTC Protocol Server in your installation of Sierra Chart, historical data has to be downloaded on port 11098.

So this does make sense:
when I set "use separate historical data connection" to NO, client LOG tells me that "Historical Price Data request is not supported on this port"

However, you cannot access data from some exchanges like the CME:
Data and Trading Communications (DTC) Protocol Server: Restrictions

You are getting this because you are using an invalid IP address that contains 2 dots side-by-side:
when I set "use separate historical data connection" to YES, client LOG tells me that "no such host is known"
