FIX Acceptor properties file

Description

The file is used to specify FIX Acceptor properties.

Parameters

Attribute	Description
FileLogPath FileStorePath	Directory to store FIX logs files.
SocketAcceptPort	Port number where acceptor waiting for initiator.
SocketAcceptPort	Port number where acceptor waiting for initiator.
ConnectionType	Connection type. Should be set to "acceptor".
StartTime	Session start time.
EndTime	Session terminate time.
SenderCompID	Assigned value used to identify firm sending message.
BeginString	FIX protocol version for the session.
TargetCompID	Assigned value used to identify receiving firm.
HeartBtInt	Heart beat interval in seconds.
DataDictionary	Path to FIX Dictionary file to be used to sent / validate received messages. This attribute should only be used with FIX transport versions older than FIXT 1.1. See TransportDataDictionary and AppDataDictionary for FIXT 1.1 settings.
DefaultApplVerID	Required only for FIXT 1.1 (and newer). Ignored for earlier transport versions. Specifies the default application version ID for the session. This can either be the ApplVerID enum (see the ApplVerID field) or the beginString for the default version.
TransportDataDictionary	XML definition file for validating admin (transport) messages. This setting is only valid for the FIXT 1.1 (or newer) sessions. See DataDictionary for older transport versions (FIX 4.0-4.4) and for additional information.
AppDataDictionary	XML definition file for validating application messages. This setting is only valid for the FIXT 1.1 (or newer) sessions. See DataDictionary for older transport versions (FIX 4.0-4.4) and for additional information. This setting supports the possibility of a custom application data dictionary for each session. This setting would only be used with FIXT 1.1 and new transport protocols. This setting can be used as a prefix to specify multiple application dictionaries for the FIXT transport. For example: DefaultApplVerID=FIX.4.2 # For default application version ID AppDataDictionary=FIX42.xml # For nondefault application version ID # Use beginString suffix for app version AppDataDictionary.FIX.4.4=FIX44.xml This would use FIX42.xml for the default application version ID and FIX44.xml for any FIX 4.4 messages.

Note: please do not change other values of the configuration files.
