Java Application Tunnels do not work when Microsoft Internet Explorer runs with Enhanced Protected Mode.
Enhanced Protected Mode (AppContainer technology) in Internet Explorer 11 prevents interception of connection requests. App Tunnels cannot redirect traffic to proxy running on loopback address.
By default Internet Explorer 11 starts in Enhanced Protected Mode and the browser process runs inside AppContainer.
Option 1. Disable Enhanced Protected Mode in Internet Explorer 11. Option 2. Add backend server to Trusted or Intranet Sites List.
Java Application Tunnels now work when Microsoft Internet Explorer 11 runs with Enhanced Protected Mode. However, the tunnel is bound to 127.0.0.1 due to limitations of this mode.
