You must be referring to non-encrypted traffic.  Or does SNIFFER now 
include a module to break and decrypt 128bit encrypted communications?

If you are referring to normal HTTP communications (non-SSL), then be 
aware that GTA has never recommended use of the EXTernal network 
interface for its use.  We created GBAdmin with an encrypted link to 
address the concerns of those users who wanted to administer the 
firewall securely from any interface.

Recently GTA has introduced SSL to the web interface.  This allows 
users who don't (or won't) use Windows to have a secure encrypted 
interface.
