WAF Exchange 2013 RPC

craulston
I know that RPC calls over HTTP/S were not supported in 9.0.
RPC calls over HTTP/S are not supported by Astaro Web Application Security

I was wondering if this was included in 9.1.

Thanks

    Sascha, That's correct and is in fact, the mode you want the UTM to use for RPC over HTTP traffic, assuming you want the UTM to pass it properly.

    Short of writing an RPC daemon for the web proxy (VERY complex task), there is no benefit in trying to apply HTTP-oriented filtering to Outlook Anywhere, TSG or RDG traffic (all use RPC/HTTP), and in fact, frequently results in intermittent or completely broken RPC/HTTP communications.

    This was a frequent request made by ISA and TMG customers, but was deemed to have a very low ROI, and these are the folks that had direct access to the Windows and Exchange RPC devs.
