I have a problem with my windows azure virtual machine.
I need to open the Port 443 (HTTPS) on the VM.
In the Endpoint Config. of the virtual machine, I opened it and configure the ACL with the following parameters:
Permit
0.0.0.0/0
It's a Windows Server 2012 VM and I created the firewall rule for the public Connection.
A Port Check from ping.eu shows that the port 443 is closed.
The Location of the virtual machine is Western Europe.
I hope, you can help me.
Kind Regards

I also had this issue and it was very annoying! I thought at first I was not setting up the SSL bindings correctly or that it was a certificate issue, then moved on to firewall issues. In the end it was the Azure endpoint at fault.
I had added the 443 endpoint, disabled local firewall and got nothing nothing. I got suspicious when I added a new endpoint on 8080, bound to https and it worked fine.
I deleted the 443 endpoint, shut the Azure VM down from the webinterface after shutting down the client. Created a new 443 endpoint and restarted the VM (I had already tried restarting my win2012r2 vm). It worked.
It must be a glitch in the networking stack of azure endpoints. You are not going mad!!
Hope that helps!

Did you also configure the Endpoint Configuration through the web management portal to forward connections from the ext->int ports ?
Anything you change on the Win2k12 Virtual machine will just affect the VM itself. i.e. opening 443 in the firewall, or configuring routes etc...
But you also need to allow a connection forward from the cloudapp.net public IP address to the internal IP of the box. See the below screenshot.
Another gotcha. In addition to setting up the Endpoint configuration, you need to enable IP Forwarding. This is disabled by default.
IP Forwarding can be found in the IP Configuration settings of the network interface.

I am new to Azure and I allready have a problem, I am trying to deploy nginx on azure but nothing works !
I created my vm, opened port 22 to connect via ssh and port 80 for the nginx server.
Then I downloaded nginx with apt, I checked it was running but I can never get to the default home page. I tried using the public ip adress and the dns name.
Here is the network config
Any help would be welcomed.
I found the answer, for those of you that have their firewalls down like me, AND have load balancers direct the traffic to their VM, edit the inbound NAT rules of the load balancers, by adding ports and VM you want your traffic redirecting to, it worked for me.
So I'm using an Azure VM that has a public IP address, and I've opened an inbound port, let's say it's 5555.
What I'm trying to do now is to run an application on the VM that has an API via localhost, also with the port 5555. I'm calling it then with public_ip:5555/api/...
Since I was not able to connect to the application from outside, is there something missing here? Most tutorials and resources I've found just mentioned opening the port.
Thanks.
Take a look at Azure's IP Flow Verify utility, which will check your NSG rules to ensure traffic can reach your VM. https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/network-watcher/network-watcher-ip-flow-verify-overview
If traffic is reaching your VM, check your host firewall and then your application server logs.
I have created inbound and outbound rule on the virtual machine to allow any connection to port 5100 over tcp.
I have created an endpoint in the new Azure portal for TCP and public/private port 5100, but for some reason I can't comprehend I still can't connect.
I tried to turn off the firewall on the virtual machine, but still I can't connect to the virtual machine.
I have previously done this for port 80 with no problems. Does anyone know if Microsoft have changed anything that affects the classic vm's and endpoint configuration?
We can add endpoints via New Azure portal in this way:
We should make sure the update endpoint completed.
Hope this helps:)
I have a Windows Server 2012 virtual machine provisioned on Azure. I installed Neo4j server on this virtual machine and I'm accessing the Neo4j browser on localhost:7474.
However I cannot access the browser outside using my virtual machine's public IP e.g <machineIP:7474>
Here's what I have done so far:
In the Azure portal, I added inbound rules for the NSG to allow http and https ports 80 and 443 (I have done the same on a Linux virtual machine also hosted in Azure and I can access the browser just fine)
I also added an inbound rule in Windows Firewall to allow Port 80 and 443 as well
What possibly blocks me from accessing the virtual machine's IP from the outside?
You have to add TCP port 7474 to the firewall in the Azure portal:
change your neo4j-server.properties
set
org.neo4j.server.webserver.address=0.0.0.0
To remotely access Neo4j installed on a Windows VM in Azure, these are the changes you'll need to make:
In the Azure portal, add TCP port 7474 to the Endpoints of your Windows VM
On your Windows VM, in the Windows Firewall Advances Security, add a new Inbound Rule for port 7474
Change the conf/neo4j.conf and uncomment this line:
org.neo4j.server.webserver.address=0.0.0.0
Note: In case you also want full access to Neo4j's browse interface including Bolt, then also add port 7687 both in the Azure Endpoints and the Windows Firewall.
I have setup an http endpoint (port 80) for my Azure VM. I have verified that the firewall is allowing port 80 both in and out. (My VM operating system is Windows Server 2012.)
Yet still, I am unable to hit IIS on port 80 from a remote machine. (Locally I can hit localhost just fine.)
So I'm wondering if what I'm missing is a network acl. However, the Azure documentation (as of 12/2/2013) seems contradictory:
When a virtual machine is created, a default ACL is put in place to
block all incoming traffic. However, if an endpoint is created for
(port 3389), then the default ACL is modified to allow all inbound
traffic for that endpoint.
Yet below it says:
It’s important to note that by default, when an endpoint is created,
all traffic is denied to the endpoint.
Which is correct? Do I need to create an allow all ACL? Am I missing something else about how Azure DNS and network traffic works?
That same page follows on to write
No ACL – By default when an endpoint is created, we permit all for the
endpoint.
I believe that the comment suggesting all traffic is denied by default is wrong.
To confirm I have just deployed a brand new Windows Server 2012 Data Centre VM, installed IIS, open the Windows Firewall and configured an endpoint for TCP port 80 and it all worked just fine although its worth pointing out that it took a few minutes between configuring the endpoint and being able to browse to the server.
