IT or a third party host may limit what hosts are allowed across any tunneling/VPN solution is in place from the server location to whatever end user locations. HTTPS connections are a different breed entirely, and there are multiple points for potential breakage: Most customers and partners/hosting companies working with SAP ABAP based systems have known what they need to do to get the RFC based connections working for years. Why are these connections harder than traditional RFCs?

More communication with this will be added over time. As of customer release, the main thing being sent via this new connection is EarlyWatch alerts. Support Hub Connectivity: SAP is using a new consumer proxy in SolMan 7.2 AS ABAP to send data. What are these connections, and what is their purpose? While many customers have configured their firewall and relevant network rules for the RFC connections for ages, HTTPS based connections may not be allowed for multiple reasons. What is changing, and why is it likely to impact me? SolMan is moving more from traditional RFC based mechanisms like the SAP-OSS connection to HTTP(S) based mechanisms for both downloading content and sending content (like EarlyWatch alerts) to SAP.

While enhancing the capabilities from the SAP side is great, it can create headaches and initial work for customer BASIS once you do get on 7.2. r/softwaregore was just making fun of SAP for the Support Portal password rules (which are about to change, per my earlier post), but the short version is that SAP is modernizing a lot of communication with the support portal, and this includes several connection mechanisms as of Solution Manager 7.2.
