FIX: Logon Tag Validation

September 30

TT FIX has introduced a new feature that will enable FIX sessions in UAT and Production to be routed to a specific host in the environment rather than being randomly assigned a host by the HA Proxy load balancer during Logon. The new feature will give customers and TT greater flexibility in routing sessions for the purposes of testing, diagnosis, early access to new features or roll-back to older versions of the TT FIX servers.
