| Remote Server Settings | |
| Trader Server Name (Environment/Server) | Demo (mitssimul.iitech.dk) |
| Use HTTP | No |
| Port | 1001(must be open in Firewall) |
| Proxy Server Settings | |
| Connect Via Proxy Server | No |
| SOCKS Protocol Version | N/A |
| Server Name | N/A |
| Port | N/A |
| Username | N/A |
| Password | N/A |
| Notes: Use this configuration if you have a Proxy/Firewall Client. No further proxy information should be required by SMPTrader. If your site uses a firewall, Port 1001 must be opened for IP address 193.178.175.38 or DNS name mitssimul.iitech.dk. | |
| Advantages: This is the preferred operating mode as it allows faster data transfers between the server and the SMPTrader. | |
If it is not possible to open this port due to strict firewall policy, SMPTrader can be configured to use:
| Remote Server Settings | |
| Trader Server Name (Environment/Server) | Demo / mitssimul.iitech.dk |
| Use HTTP | Yes |
| Port | N/A |
| Proxy Server Settings | |
| Connect Via Proxy Server | Yes |
| SOCKS Protocol Version | N/A |
| Server Name | DNS or IP Address of HTTP Proxy Server |
| Port | Typically 80 or 8080 |
| Username | Userid for proxy authentication |
| Password | Password for proxy authentication |
| Notes: If port 100l cannot be opened (for example due to strict firewall policies), the SMPTrader can be set up to run in HTTP mode where all communications between the server and the SMPTrader use the HTTP Port. | |
| Advantages: Port 1001 does not need to be open on the firewall. | |
| Disadvantages: This mode of operation is considerably slower than the raw protocol solution. | |

| Trader Server Name (Environment/Server) | Demo / mitssimul.iitech.dk |
| Use HTTP | No |
| Port | 1001(must be open in Firewall) |
| Proxy Server Settings | |
| Connect Via Proxy Server | Yes |
| SOCKS Protocol Version | 4(a) or 5 |
| Server Name | DNS or IP Address of Socks Proxy Server |
| Port | Typically 1080 |
| Username | Userid for proxy authentication |
| Password | Password for proxy authentication (version 5 only) |
| Notes: If your site uses a firewall, Port 1001 must be open for IP address 193.178.175.38 or DNS name mitssimul.iitech.dk. | |
| Advantages: This is the preferred operating mode as it allows faster data transfers between the server and the SMPTrader. | |
| Disadvantages: Requires a Proxy Server that supports the Socks Protocol. | |

| Connect Via Proxy Server | No |
| SOCKS Protocol Version | N/A |
| Server Name | N/A |
| Port | N/A |
| Username | N/A |
| Password | N/A |
| Advantages: Does not require Port 1001 to be opened in the firewall. | |
| Disadvantages: This mode of operation is considerably slower than port 1001 communications. | |
| Trade Server Name (Environment/Server) | This is the DNS name or IP address of the trading server and should not be changed unless instructed to do so by us. |
| TCP/IP Port | The SMPTrader supports a proprietary TCP/IP protocol for communications with the trading server. This protocol offers efficient communications with the trading server and we recommend it's use where possible. |
| Use HTTP | To set up the SMPTrader to communicate with the trading server using HTTP tunneling instead of the proprietary protocol, check the Use HTTP check box. This may be required to allow the SMPTrader to communicate with the trading server through your firewall or proxy server. The proprietary TCP/IP protocol (non-HTTP) is the preferred operating mode as it allows faster data transfers between the server and the SMPTrader. |
| Proxy Server Settings | |
| Connect via proxy server | Check the Connect via proxy server check box to set up set up the SMPTrader for communications through a proxy server. |
| SOCKs | If SMPTrader is configured to communicate using the proprietary protocol (recommended configuration), the SOCKs protocol must be used on your Proxy Server and the correct SOCKs version must be selected. Select the SOCKS protocol version in use on your Proxy Server (versions 4a and 5 are supported). If SMPTrader is configured to communicate using HTTP tunnelling (the Use HTTP check box is checked), the proxy is assumed to be a HTTP proxy and the SOCKs protocol is not used. |
| DNS or IP Address | Enter either the DNS name or the IP address of your proxy server as seen from your network. We recommend the use of DNS names where possible as this can make traversing address translation (NAT) solutions simpler. |
| User Name and password | Enter the User name and Password if required by your proxy server. If your proxy uses the SOCKs protocol version 4a, User Name only is supported by this protocol. SOCKs protocol version 5 supports both User Name and Password. HTTP proxies can be configured for User Name and Password for basic or digest authentication. |
| Port | Typical Proxy Ports: HTTP Proxy : 80 or 8080 SOCKS Proxy : 1080 |
| Communications Settings | |
| Enable communications log | Check the Enable communications log check box to enable logging of communications between the SMPTrader and the trading server. This is typically done for troubleshooting purposes. |
