Configure fix session

Initiator FIX session

FIXEdge.properties
FixLayer.FixEngine.Session.SSLInitiator.Role = Initiator
FixLayer.FixEngine.Session.SSLInitiator.Host = 127.0.0.1
FixLayer.FixEngine.Session.SSLInitiator.Port = 443

 

Complex configuration: Broker/Stock -> Broker's/Stock's Stunnel -> FIXEdge's Stunnel -> FIXEdge -> FIXEdge's Stunnel -> Broker's/Stock's Stunnel -> Broker/Stock

Server F (FIXEDGE):  y.y.y.y where FIXEdge is installed

Server B (BROKER):  x.x.x.x where SimpleClient #1 and SimpleClient #2 are installed. SimpleClient #1 will simulate Broker and SimpleClient #2 will simulate StockExchange.

Set ListenPort in engine.properties to 9107 (ListenPort = 9107)

SimpleClient #2 conf

Set ListenPort in engine.properties to 9106 (ListenPort = 9106)

How to use

  1. Start SimpleClient #2
  2. Start FIXEdge - session between FIXEdge and SimpleClient #2 (SC2) should be established
  3. Start SimpleClient #1 (SC1) and establish session with FIXEdge using parameters from point 3
  4. Send application level messages from SimpleClient #1 - message will be routed to SimpleClient #2
  5. Send application level messages from SimpleClient #2 - message will be routed to SimpleClient #1
