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

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

 

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

 

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

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

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

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!
