  • Services are applications identified by the TCP/UDP ports they use. To display the name of a service instead of its TCP/UDP port number, it is necessary to previously map the TCP/UDP ports with service’s names. See more at Configuring Service.
  • In some cases, VPN traffic can be forwarded through TCP port 443 thus services traffic (SSH, HTTP, etc.) will be masked as HTTPS.
