Dropped Fix Sessions

Hi Guys,

I am seeing a strange behavior between my FixServer and the FixGateway. For some reason, during inactivity period, my fix session drops the connection. This only happens when there is no activity on the line. Normally, when there is no activity on the line its exchanging heartbeats between the two every 30 seconds. But for some reason, when the time comes for the FixGateway to send its HB, it waits for 3 seconds and closes the connection. There is no second HB sent or a test request. Instead, it gracefully closes the connections. Are you guys aware of any known issues? Thanks.

Amit.

Hi Amit,

This isn’t a problem with the protocol. I’ll contact you offline about this issue.

Thanks,
