MID Server with self-hosted instances

Hello Guru,

 

I have an issue with MID Server (Utah), I would like to use it to connect to Azure Cloud Discovery, meaning on internet.

I have set-up a proxy server but as the Servicenow instance is hosted in a private cloud, the MID is not able to connect to it with the proxy configured, all the communications are going thru the proxy.

 

Is there an option or property to bypass the proxy for internal IPs? I didn't found nothing on the doc.

 

Thanks !

Fred

Hi @Fr_d_ric Dhuez ,

 

You can add the Internet Proxy on your Mid Server to connect Mid Server with Internet.

Hello,

I think the best option is to have 2 MID servers.

- 1 with proxy configured
- 1 without the proxy

one MID would be dedicated to Azure Cloud Discovery, while the other would be for your customer's internal integrations

Hello

 

The support confirms that there is no option to bypass the proxy for private IPs, but it seems that there is a solution with a second MID that must be installed with a specific Java wrapper configuration...

 

In the meantime I have installed a privoxy proxy server which can forward Azure communications to the external proxy and reroute local communication, it works fine.

Hello Fred, we are facing the same issue. ServiceNow and MID Server are running On Prem (self hosted) and we want to start discovering Azure resources.

Do you have further information related to this "specific Java wrapper configuration..." ?

Thanks, Martin
