MACROMEDIA FLASH MEDIA SERVER 2-MANAGING FLASH MEDIA SERVER Manual page 191

AllowHTTPTunnel
The tag configures Flash Media Server to allow HTTP tunneling connections into this
application.
Description
By default, Flash Player communicates with Flash Media 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 non-standard ports.
In some cases, the Flash Player has to negotiate a connection to Flash Media Server through a
proxy 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 tag are described in the following table:
