In regards to the DataIntellect FIX adaptor
is it possible to enable secure TLS connections, or is it setup purely for plain-text? 

I am testing a connection to the Binance FIX
server which requires secure TLS encryption with Ed25519 and
I am wondering if I need to modify the library itself to achieve that?

The other option is to create an external TLS proxy (e.g. stunnel) but
I would prefer to avoid that if possible.
Many thanks

Found the answer.
When building the underlying quickfix you need to run the following

./configure --with-openssl="path to openssl install"

Then the SSL params can be set in the .ini file.
