While Cloudflare Tunnel is primarily designed for HTTP/S traffic, it can forward other TCP-based protocols. For protocols like VNC, you would configure the `cloudflared` service directive to point to the VNC server's address and port (e.g., `service: vnc://localhost:5900`). However, authentication and access control through Cloudflare Access might need careful consideration for non-HTTP protocols.
