Case 2 : There is a direct Internet access to the client Machine
    
    A)HTTPS ENABLED
        Any desk :  Any desk is able to connect to the remote server (It should not use proxy settings if there is a direct Internet connection)
        Team viewer : Team viewer is able to connect to the remote  server through proxy (It should use proxy settings, but if we apply blocking rules on proxy, then it will use direct Internet connection, so it is not possible to block team viewer with proxy in direct internet connection )

    B) HTTPS DISABLED :
        Any desk :  Any desk is able to connect to the remote server (It is not using proxy settings if there is a direct Internet connection)
