FIXEdge provides the possibility to specify multiple IP addresses per FIX Session.

Specifying multiple IP addresses per FIX Session in the FIXEdge.properties file isn't allowed at this moment. Please use the corresponding parameter in the engine.properties file: Session.<SenderCompId/TargetCompId>.SourceIPaddress.

In order to do it you should:

  1. Remove or comment the line In the FIXEdge.properties file (if you added this line earlier):

    FixLayer.FixEngine.Session.<Session_Name>.SourceIPaddress = <IP address 1>, <IP address 2>...

  2. Add the line to the engine.properties file:

    Session.<SenderCompId/TargetCompId>.SourceIPaddress = <IP address 1>, <IP address 2>...
  3. Apply these steps to each FIX session you are interested in.
