[ QUOTE ] How (if possible) do i redirect HTTP traffic to HTTPS on a public IP (DMZ) - it's not possible on the webserver, can it be done on the FW ?

I'm curious. Just why would you want to do that? Those are two different protocols...I'm sure you already know that... [;)]
If you want to access your webadmin remotely then you will have to use HTTPS and allow 443 and routing that port to your firewall.
I do it and it works well...with a minimum risk of course, but hey, I'm always curious as to what goes on through my firewall and so I can't wait 8-10 hours 'till I get home to use my trusty https://192... and so I always check it remotely... Besides, it's a great feeling showing-off to my friends how I can access ASL remotely...
It's a popular request, actually. Most often they want to offer a secure implementation of webmail to clients, and they might forget to type the https (might? will!). The redirect insures they use the secure protocol, and is slicker than a 404...

My apologies to TheDane....my ignorance serves me well...
