What's this code for?

[pro_seo]

Hello,

I found this code in the htaccess of one of my client's sites.

RewriteCond %{SERVER_PORT} ^443$
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ [domain.com...] [R=301,L]

Can anyone explain what's this code for? There are separate codes in the htaccess for redirecting non-www to www and from /index.htm to / so it's not something used for such redirects.

Thanks a lot!

https uses port 443 vs port 80 for standard http

With that code anything requested with https will be redirected to the same page with an http connection.
