AllowHTTPTunnel
This element configures the server to allow HTTP tunneling connections into this application.
By default, Flash Player communicates with the server using the RTMP protocol over port 1935. If that fails, it will try again over ports 443 and 80 in an attempt to get around firewall settings, which prevents TCP/IP connections over nonstandard ports.
In some cases, the Flash Player has to negotiate a connection to Flash Media Server through an edge server, or use the HTTP protocol to transmit RTMP packets (called HTTP tunneling) if there is a firewall that allows only HTTP content to be sent out to public servers.
The values for this element are described in the following table.
