Yes, I went thru and discovered that it really only can block SOAP.

We have a application that uses port 443 and they claim SOAP is the
protocol, it is being blocked as a protocol violation.
I read that SOAP can tunnel on HTTP or thru HTTPS, I must assume this
application is failing because it is not doing either correctly.

Log snipit:
category: protocol_violation event: Not HTTP or SSL
reason: Not valid HTTP or SSL negotiation: SSL V2

I'm not aware that it can do anything above and beyond what's in the
HTTP/HTTPS Application Defenses. Namely, check HTTP methods, the request
and reply headers, etc., but I could be wrong. 

What are you trying to accomplish?
