Hi @vidhi.c.jain, I think I found a workaround. Please change your network settings in VirtualBox to Bridged Adapter. Once I changed it, I was able to pass all the connections tests. 

@Sofie Haug You can ignore my previous post! However, do you or someone on your team understand the downstream effect of this setting? Unfortunately I am not a networking expert :(

but it seems to be working for now!

Hi @vidhi.c.jain 

You probably need to check with your IT to verify if there are any firewall or proxy blocking access.

(because you should be able to access)

Hi Sofie, I am facing the same issue. What’s weird is, if I run the connection test outside of the Ubuntu environment, everything passes. In the ubuntu environment, I get the same output as Vidhi.

 

 

What’s also strange is, even if I access a basic website like www.google.com, in the ubuntu environment it shows as not secure. This is my first time using virtual box, but, perhaps there is a network setting or flag we need pass to the VM? TIA!

I followed the above suggested setting for Network, the firewall check for all links passed except for the link “https://portal.azure.com”.  It just hang there not printing any message. 

I checked the link via Chrome, and it works fine.

Here is my network setting

Hello, I have tried to replicate the problem without success. However, could you please try to test using ‘ping’ command from the VM?
 

ping -c 2 ice-cream-factory.inso-internal.cognite.ai
ping -c 2 github.com
ping -c 2 portal.azure.com
ping -c 2 docs-bootcamp.app.cogniteapp.com

It looks like the site that is causing the problem is portal.azure.com, you could also try to access it through the webpage to verify access. Simply try  https://portal.azure.com

yes I can access https://portal.azure.com via web page.

 

“ping -c 2 portal.azure.com” does not work.

Indeed ‘portal.azure.com’ does not respond to ping, but the important part is that you have access through the web-page.
