Certain types of network traffic are blocked by firewalls. Port 443 on many firewalls is initially reserved for HTTP and HTTPS) based communication. Many firewalls have a rule to filter out any non-HTTP data. Depending on what the Secure Gateway will be routing, HTTP filtering may need to be disabled on the firewall.

The Secure Gateway can proxy various types of traffic. Some are HTTP based and some are not.
