My employer does the same over a proxy. Luckily it can’t breach HTTPS, but it was annoying to set all my APs and router and switches and other network nodes to HTTPS just because the damn thing would block the site the moment I sent my password in cleartext to a local device…

What does that mean? HTTPS is a client-server thing, your APS and switches don’t really have anything to do with that.
Web control panel. All my network runs OpenWrt and I prefer to manage it from the web UI instead of terminal tinkering.
Ahh that makes sense. I thought you were claiming you somehow got all your traffic over HTTPS with some AP settings.
Setting their management interfaces to be accessed via https because the VPN blocks (after snooping on) http only access would be my guess
You’re sure they aren’t decrypting your traffic? Check the root cert of any site and see if it’s their own root.
Yep, they’re not decrypting HTTPS, I’ve triple checked. But we do have an MDM forced proxy service that does check any non-encrypted traffic…
This is definitely a thing.
Only if the site they’re visiting isn’t using HSTS, but it’s possible
I don’t think this is correct. HSTS only prevents downgrading.
Annoying, but ideally it would have been the initial configuration
