Universal HTTP Tunnel description
This software allows HTTP / HTTPS tunneling of any TCP communication between any client-server systems.

This software helps enabling network communications in firewall/proxy server/traffic filtering environments, where only certain traffic via HTTP protocol is allowed.

Various client-server applications such as remote desktop, streaming and application servers, use custom ports and proprietary TCP protocols for IP data exchange. As a matter of fact, these programs will be able to function in prohibitive environments using this network utility.

How it works:

The client side of a tunnel is the Universal HTTP Tunnel client application. It listens on a particular TCP port for incoming requests. Once the request comes, the program creates an HTTP/S tunnel to the server and sends data through this tunnel. The server side of the tunnel is a standard Microsoft IIS web server, extended by our Universal IIS Proxy ISAPI extension. The server side simply forwards the data to the intended recipient application running on the server computer or its LAN.

Both client and server sides support multiple tunnels and multiple connections via the same tunnel at the same time. The tunnel must be configured on the server side in order for the client to use it.

Requirements:

· Internet Information Server 4.0 or higher on your server computer


Limitations:

· Each connection to any tunnel lasts 10 minutes.
