Hi Sakira, The theory behind this is for the initiator to check if the connection is up(if this is the first connection with the acceptor for the day), the initiator will expect a sequence 1. Yes it is a low level socket acceptance.The logon message must be the first message sent by the application requesting to initiate a FIX session. There are few tags there but as far as I know there should be Tag 108, 95,96, 98. Upon receipt of a Logon message, the session acceptor will authenticate the party requesting connection and issue a Logon message as acknowledgment that the connection request has been accepted. The acknowledgment Logon can also be used by the initiator to validate that the connection was established with the correct party. Check this http://www.transacttools.net/ttportal/datadict/browser.jsp it may help.
