Unable to set proxy in Azure Edge Runtime

Pandey, Yogesh 21

Hi,

I am following this tutorial to add proxy to my edge device and trying to connect to Azure IoT Hub.

But the values are not reflected when I run

systemctl show --property=Environment aziot-edged
systemctl show --property=Environment aziot-identityd

The output is coming like this

And not able to connect to my Azure Account,

However if I run :

sudo iotedge check --proxy-uri <Proxy Details>

I am able to see a connection

The status of the edge daemon is as follows:

Can someone guide me on how to set the proxy correctly to Azure IoT edge Runtime

@Pandey, Yogesh Community Members, SME's on this topic or our team will review your scenario and circle back at the possible earliest time.

@Pandey, Yogesh Apologies for the delay in response.

It appears to be that your proxy is blocking the connectivity. Please check your firewall and port configuration rules

While IoT Edge provides enhanced configuration for securing Azure IoT Edge runtime and deployed modules, it is still dependent on the underlying machine and network configuration. Hence, it is imperative to ensure proper network and firewall rules are set up for secure edge to cloud communication. The following table can be used as a guideline when configuration firewall rules for the underlying servers where Azure IoT Edge runtime is hosted:

Do let us know if that helps.

Is the issue solved? Based on the first image, it doesn't seem like whatever proxy you set up for the edged and identityd daemons is in use. Either a syntax error when you edited them or it didn't save or you didn't do the systemctl daemon-reload?

I confirmed on my one edge device running through a proxy that the commands you ran should be showing proxy information. Take a screenshot of the output from sudo systemctl edit aziot-edged and let's see if the content is correct.

Also, have you added the proxy variable to your config.toml file? I think that will be necessary for the modules to run properly, too.

PFA the details for the sudo systemctl edit aziot-edged command.
Yes, the same proxy variable is added in config.toml file as well.
