Azure cloud plugin proxy

Usage and Config
1

I’ve added the http and https proxy env var in Win following https://help.hcltechsw.com/bigfix/10.0/platform/Platform/Config/c_config_cplugins.html for the installation of the Azure Cloud Plugin.

As noted in the doc, By default internal communications are not diverted towards the proxy. To maintain this behavior, ensure that you include localhost, 127.0.0.1 in the list of exceptions when specifying a value for this setting.
Note: Ensure that you read Setting up a proxy connection to learn more about using the proxy exception list on a relay thru the samples. , I am now getting this error in the BESPluginPortal log file

Thu, 15 Jun 2023 21:26:09 +0000 - 4804 - Error connecting to local relay: "HTTP Error 56: Failure when receiving data from the peer: Proxy CONNECT aborted". Retrying in 1 minute.

I’ve set HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\BigFix\EnterpriseClient\Settings\Client\_Enterprise Server_ClientRegister_ProxyExceptionList with value of localhost, 127.0.0.1, *.ourdomain.blah and restarted the client and bes plugin portal service but not effect. Is this the right syntax for wildcard to match our parent relay FQDN?

Might this help:

Try creating system variables -

HTTP_PROXY - http://yourproxy.com:8080

NO_PROXY - localhost,127.0.0.1,your_plugin_server_hostname,your_master_server_hostname

I am not remembering the error but I also had similar type of issue with our plugin portal, after updating these variables along with reg proxy exception list, there were no connection issue.
