AVPN Workflow
1. AWS sends a request to res.sabre.com:30031
2. The local host (hosts file) resolves res.sabre.com to
127.0.0.1
3. The AVPNs port forwarder intercepts the traffic and sends
it trough port 443 using a SSL connection to
sslvpn.sabre.com
4. The SSL VPN gateway at sslvpn.sabre.com forwards the
request to the host system
