Is it possible to reverse proxy User Portal?

I have ISP uplink with a single IP. I host a WebServer and I would like to publish User Portal too, but they can't share the same 443 port. I tried to define UTM as a WebServer, change User Portal listening port to 4443 and make a rule to publish it, but no luck.

I have another idea to use an internal reverse proxy server to loop back HTTP traffic back to XG ... but this may be tricky and user portal may not work with modified url - e.g.: https://public-host-name.domain.tld/xg-user-portal --> https://internal-proxy.domain.lan --> https://utm.domain.lan:4443.

Anyone here solved this puzzle ?

I tried to solve this on the UTM, where it was not possible to share the Port. I guess, it's the same on XG Firewall. If you find any solution, let me know.

Still no luck. I think this could be a good feature request but I doubt if it could have use in business environment where ISPs offer more than one IP. Small businesses on the other hand go to the cloud nowadays.

The conclusion is that the User Portal must be accessible using non-standard port but this does mean that you wont be able to connect to home from your office as most companies will block non 443 HTTPS access - as I would do of course [:D]

Slawski, I think your request is a good one for all small business customers. If you open the feature request, I will vote it.
