 NOTE: In case we try to change the Https management port to 1443 , we will get an error as shown below.

 The reason for this error is SonicWall uses TCP 1443 for redirecting unauthenticated HTTPS connections into the   web server (For ULA), the same can be found on diag page as shown below:

In case we need to use port 1443 for HTTPS management , please change the default internal redirection port to any other value first  and then we should be able to use TCP 1443 for HTTPS management.
