I want to access custom port of my vm on azure via public ip from my browser

Question

I want to access my public ip of my azure vm via my browser using custom port i.e. 8080 or 9000.

Answer 1

Hi @Roberto ,

please run the Connection troubleshoot in Azure Portal on your vm. This will test the connection from public internet (your ip address of your computer) to the VM in Azure.

Another test could be done from a different vm (for instancen vm02) in the same subnet: Try a curl vm01:8080 from vm02 to see if this is working "inside the same subnet" and if the service is bound successfully on the nic of vm01 for inbound connection.

@Roberto You will be doing steps similar to document but for the ports 8080 or 9000 as required i.e.,

After you've created a VM that's configured to serve web requests on the TCP port 8080/9000, you can:

• Create a network security group.
• Create an inbound security rule allowing traffic and assign values to the following settings: Destination port ranges: 8080 or 9000
  Source port ranges: * (allows any source port)
  Priority value: Enter a value that is less than 65,500 and higher in priority than the default catch-all deny inbound rule.
• Associate the network security group with the VM network interface or subnet.

Hi @Roberto ,

In my last post on this thread you can see a setup of a Windows vm with IIS listening on port 9000 and all the configuration details I did to get it working.
Maybe this helps.
