vsw agent runs a web server that other agents communicate with via POST.
This presents an issue in private hosts behind a firewall, including typical home firewalls, enterprise firewalls etc.
We need a work around so that HTTP/HTTPS can be accepted in most cases. More restrictive firewalls are out of scope.
This solution will contain a component in vsw for initiating a tunnel and another in a server that accepts the tunnel and forwards HTTP/HTTPS, preferably our own server rather than relying on a third party.
