# Network connection issues

Autify Nexus might display one of the following errors if there is a network connection issue between your environment and Autify’s servers:

- “ERR_INTERNET_DISCONNECTED”
- “Could not connect to this server. Please check the URL and your network connection.”

This document will help you to troubleshoot and identify possible issues in your network configuration to resolve such errors.

## Initial troubleshooting steps

Confirm the following points, as they are common sources of network connection issues when using Autify Nexus.

- Your [network is correctly configured](/v1/docs/installing-autify-nexus#network-requirements) to allow communication with Autify’s servers
- Your device is connected to the internet and can access external websites (not limited to your company’s domain)
- You have confirmed with your IT team that the Autify Nexus application has access to the internet
- If possible, you’ve tried restarting your router or switching to a different network

## **Verify that you can access Autify’s servers**

If the initial troubleshooting steps didn’t solve your issue, try the following steps to confirm that you can connect to Autify’s servers.

You will need your server URL. This is the URL given to you when you signed up to Autify Nexus, and it’s the URL you use to log in to the application.

> [!NOTE]
> When following the below instructions, replace the placeholder URL `xxxxxx.cloud.autify.com` with your full server URL.

### **Step 1: Check your DNS settings**

First, confirm that your device or environment can find Autify’s server correctly.

Open a **Command Prompt (Windows)** or **Terminal (macOS/Linux)** and run the following command:

`nslookup xxxxxx.cloud.autify.com`

#### **Output on success**

If successful, you’ll see a response that includes an IP address and server name. This means that your DNS settings are fine.

```bash
// Example Output
Server:         8.8.8.8
Address:        8.8.8.8#53

Non-authoritative answer:
xxxxxx.cloud.autify.com  canonical name = atlas-prd-xxxxxx.ap-northeast-1.elb.amazonaws.com.
Name:   atlas-prd-xxxxxx.ap-northeast-1.elb.amazonaws.com
Address: 35.76.183.70
Name:   atlas-prd-xxxxxx.ap-northeast-1.elb.amazonaws.com
Address: 54.199.44.111
```

#### **Output on failure**

If nothing shows up or you get an error, your internal DNS settings might be misconfigured.

#### **Resolution**

If you’re on a secure or corporate network, your IT team may be managing DNS. In this case, please check with them to ensure that the domain `xxxxxx.cloud.autify.com` can be resolved correctly.

Alternatively, try switching to a public DNS provider like Google DNS (8.8.8.8) or Cloudflare DNS (1.1.1.1) to see if that resolves the issue.

### **Step 2: Test your connection to Autify’s server**

If your DNS settings are fine, check if your device can reach Autify’s server through the internet.

In a **Command Prompt (Windows)** or **Terminal (macOS/Linux)** window, run the following command:

`curl xxxxxx.cloud.autify.com`

#### **Output on success**

If successful, you’ll see a response similar to the following HTML markup. A successful response indicates that your environment can connect to the Autify Nexus servers.

```bash
$ curl xxxxxx.cloud.autify.com
<html>
<head><title>301 Moved Permanently</title></head>
<body>
<center><h1>301 Moved Permanently</h1></center>
</body>
</html>
```

#### **Output on failure**

If the response is an error or doesn’t match the expected output above, your network may be blocking access.

#### **Resolution**

Ask your IT team to whitelist `xxxxxx.cloud.autify.com` in your firewall or proxy settings to allow Autify Nexus to connect properly.
