“Offline – no internet connection?”

“Code 407” shows in logs when trying to connect to a proxy server from a Cisco Webex Board.

 

You can configure a Cisco Webex board, room, or desk device running RoomOS to use a Proxy server for HTTPS and WebSocket traffic. If the Proxy server requires authentication and you do not provide a username/password or provide a wrong username/password, your device won’t be able to connect to the internet.

If your device has not been activated yet, the message “Not able to contact Webex service. A firewall may be blocking the system from connecting” appears below the activation code:
