I have installed mosquitto broker on virtual machine at port 1883.This virtual machine is hosted on azure cloud.To gain access to this broker i have opened the ports by adding inbound rules.Still i am not able to publish to this mosquitto broker from outside network.
I have added the inbound rules by allowing port 1883 to allow access from the outside network
string ClientId = new Guid().ToString();
client = new MqttClient("104.211.219.200", 1883, false, null);
client.Connect(ClientId);
client.Publish("local", Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes("Message from local PC"), MqttMsgBase.QOS_LEVEL_EXACTLY_ONCE, false);
According to your description, per my experience, I think your mosquitto not works now is caused by not adding a NSG rule for your VM networking interface to allow the inbound requests from port 1883.
Here is my steps to install mosquitto server on my Azure Windows VM. Hope it helps.
On Azure portal, to create a Windows VM with Windows 2012 R2 Datacenter.
Enable Just-in-time access feature in tab Configuration, then to download a RDP file to access this VM.
I uploaded the mosquitto server installation file (a x64 distribution, it comes from https://mosquitto.org/download/) to Windows VM, and try to install it.
I got a issue about missing VCRUNTIME140.dll, then to install a VC++ 2015 distribution installation (it comes from https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=48145) to fix it.
Then, I open a command window at the mosquitto path and to run it.
Add an inbound rule into Windows Firewall with Advanced Security. It allows the requests from port 1883 on Windows.
Add an inbound rule into the NSG networking interface to allow the requests from port 1883 on Azure VNET.
I was using a MQTT desktop client MQTT.fx (it comes from https://www.hivemq.com/blog/seven-best-mqtt-client-tools/) to test for connecting, publishing & subscribing a test message.

In my company, I have setup an Azure VM and selected a pre-defined VNet (associated with a subscription). I then added inbound rules on the newly created NSG allowing ports 80, 443 and 3389(rdp).
The VM has ubuntu and apache2 installed and when I browse vm's localhost the default apache page shows.
However, when I browse the VM site from my laptop via company network, I get a connection timeout error on the browser.
I used Azure - IP verify tool and fond the cause, it appears to be a rule created for isolating NSG by the Admin team, thus blocking all inbound traffic (see image below). I cannot remote this rule.
To override this rule, I created an inbound rule at NSG level with higher priority but it still does not
work.
Any help will be much appreciated.
Edit: I am able to RDP to my VM without any issues, the main issue is to do with browsing the website hosted in my VM from the company network
Edit
For your issue, you could ensure to add an inbound security rule with a higher priority than the rule 4090 like this: destination port 80,433 with action allow and priority 100. If there are two NSGs in the networking of the virtual machine: one is associated with NIC, the other is associated with a subnet, you should allow port 80,443 in both NSGs.
As far as I know, the UFW firewall is inactive on the Azure VM by default. If you enable it, you could adjust the firewall to allows HTTP and HTTPS traffic.
After that, you could run telnet VM's public IP 80 in the CMD on the laptop to verify if the networking connection is normal. If not, contact the admin in your company to allow the outgoing traffic for port 80 or 443 or something else like virus software on your laptop is blocking it.
If the above all is no effect, you could restart your azure VM on the Azure portal. Sometimes, it may take effect on accessing the website outside of Azure. You also could follow this tutorial: Install a LAMP web server on a Linux virtual machine in Azure.
I am looking for help on how to resolve the following informational message when creating a publish profile in visual studio 2017: "publishing to the selected azure virtual machine has not been enabled".
I'm trying to set up a new publish profile for my production server. I have already successfully set one up for my development server. Both servers are Azure VMs. They use different network security groups.
I get this message when selecting New Profile->Azure Virtual Machines (click browse), selecting my production server and clicking OK.
VS2017 Production Azure VM Selected
I have already triple checked my firewall settings on both the VMs and Azure Portal. I don't think these are the cause though because I do not get this message when I choose my db server which doesn't even have IIS set up. My db and production server share an Azure network security resource group.
I'm using VS Community 2017 15.9.2 with an Azure VM and WebDeploy 3.5
C:\inetpub\logs\wmsvc has no logs on my production server but DOES have logs on my development server which makes sense since it's working there.
I tried the "Import Profile" button which seemed promising but get the following message when I click the, "Validate Connection" button:
"Could not connect to the remote computer......ERROR_DESTINATION_NOT_REACHABLE".

The issue was that the production server is behind a load balancer. The request to port 8172 was stopped there. The solution was to add an inbound NAT rule (LoadBalancer - Inbound NAT rules) so that any attempt at the load balancer IP on 8172 gets forwarded to the production server.
I tried to install my broker and the broker mosquitto in Google virtual machine but I can not connect with my machine.
I searched for several days the answer, but it still fails.
Already allowed the port 1883 on the server and have also tried disabling the firewall.
The question is whether it is possible to install a MQTT broker on Google Cloud so that accepts publications and subscribe to my local machine or other device?
if yes, what should I do?
If you tried to disable your local firewall, that shouldn't be a problem, since any outbound connections are usually enabled by default.
If you tried to disable remote machine firewall, that is not enough, because there's Google Cloud network firewall in front of your VM.
Configure their firewall to allow incoming traffic to your port, TCP protocol. See https://cloud.google.com/compute/docs/networking
Note how you cannot disable network firewall, because it's a really bad idea. Instead you should configure your firewall to allow certain traffic and reject everything else.
I've installed pfsense 2.3 x64 in virtualbox with 2 adapters; One is bridged to my wifi adapter (adsl modem) (WAN) and the other one set as'Internal network' ('intnet') (Lan);
The problem is that although pfsense can automatically detect dhcp over first adapter and get an IP but my system (the host) can not ping the pfsense server (pfsense can ping both adsl modem gateway and the host).
Note1: Disabling the antivirus and firewall (kaspersky internet security 2016) has no effect.
Note2: I know that this setup works because I use the exact same network configurations for a Kerio Control server (v9.0.2, installed in virtualbox)
Note3: If I constantly ping pfsense server in my host (ping 192.168.1.102 -t) and at the same time restart pfsense server, during the booting phase of pfsense I can get two pings!
After contacting the pfsense official forum, it turned out that the WAN interface blocks everything by default. Therefore, either a rule should be defined to allow WAN to accept traffic or access server from LAN side.
I figured this out without having to go through the WAN interface, answer is on the pfsense forum
Configure host-only network "vboxnet1" (or any of the other host-only networks if you're already using vboxnet1 for other VMs) with the following:
192.168.1.77 (or whatever IP you want your host to appear as on the network)
255.255.255.0
DHCP Disabled
The make sure that the LAN adapter on your pfSense VM is a "Host-only Adapter" and that it's using "vboxnet1" (or whatever network you configured above)
Reboot/re-install and http://192.168.1.1 should work now
I have installed mosquitto MQTT broker on Amazon EC2 windows server.
How can I publish and subscribe messages from Eclipse Paho which is installed in another computer?
Mainly what to write in place of localhost in Eclipse Paho?
I have also configured security groups for HTTP, HTTPS, SSH, MQTT (custom TCP port 8000,1883,8883).
You will need to use the public IP address of your EC2 instance instead of localhost.
Details on finding the IP addresses of your EC2 instance can be found here:
