Local Network Interface

PC has usually more than one network interface, and only the default network interface will be used by the engine. Sometimes another (not default) network interface should be specified. In that case, the Engine configuration property LocalInterface or the session LocalInterface property can be used.

Example

Copy

EngineSettings settings = new EngineSettings();
settings.LocalInterface = "Local Area Connection";

Engine.Init(settings);



Session initiator = new Session(
    "Initiator_1", "Acceptor_1", ProtocolVersion.FIX44);

initiator.LocalInterface = "Local Area Connection 2";
initiator.LogonAsInitiator("localhost", 9001);
