Configure the settings in the Additional Settings section.
Configure the following ASX (Australian Securities Exchange) settings per connection:
- Firm ID — Identifies the name of the firm that sends messages to the exchange. This field populates the value of Tag 49 (SenderCompID) in all outbound messages for the connection. Enter the value provided by the exchange. This field is required for order routing.
- Password — Enter the session password provided by the exchange. Required for order routing.
- Primary IP — Sets the exchange-provided IP address for connecting to the exchange. This is required for order routing.
- Primary Port — Sets the exchange-provided port for connecting to the exchange. This is a required setting.

- Secondary Port — Sets the backup port for connecting the session if the primary is not reachable. Note: TT recommends configuring a backup IP address and port for failover purposes.
- SharedOrder — Enter the Shared Order Group (SOG) ID of the user. If you have ASX Trade24 administrative permissions, you can use an exchange utility to create Shared Order Groups at the exchange. Users in an SOG can view and cancel all orders entered by the members of the group.
If you want a pair of users in your company to share an order book, set each user's SharedOrder option in TT to match the SOG value that you configured for each of them at the exchange.
For example, if you set the Shared Order Group to "7" for SenderSubIds BU1 and BU6 on ASX Trade24, then set the SharedOrder option to "7" for both Order Routing ID options
(SenderSubIDs) BU1 and BU6 in TT.
