The FIXEdge's license file can be obtained upon request to the Sales team. The license has an expiration date but it is possible to generate a perpetual license. License information is stored in the ‘engine.license’ file, it expected to be placed in the FIXEdge root directory. In order to apply new license, it is enough to replace the current file with a newer one and restart FIXEdge.

Info
A separate license file for FIXICC and FIXICC Agent is required for FIXdge versions of before 5.11.3
