Hello @LanceGabriel.Villacrusis,

Websockets is a data transport protocol. When connecting to RTMDS there is an option to use it with ws (unsecured) or wss (SSL - Secure sockets layer) protocol.

RSSL and SSL (Source Sink Library - deprecated) are different transport protocols - and neither are used by websockets.

Hello @LanceGabriel.Villacrusis

If the client wants to use the RSSL connection (which provides much better performance than the WebSocket API), the client needs to use the LSEG Real-Time SDK only:

This Choosing a Real-time Streaming API article might help the client to use the API that matches their requirements.
