What you should do is to talk to the firewall administrator and ask for
permission to use SSH.

In most situations it is a criminal or disloyal act to try to break out
from imposed firewalling restrictions. The restrictions are there for a
reason and the one responsible for this reason is most likely not seeing
easy on people intentionally evading the restriction knowing such
restriction exists. Be careful.
