Not able to make network calls from GCP Compute Engine


I have deployed my services in one of GCP compute engine where we make external HTTP service calls to pull data and process them for our purposes. From last two days, this call is failing with connection timeout. I have tried the same in my system. Things do work smoothly. No changes which are applied in the cloud account at all. Any possible issues which is causing this issue?

I have validated the firewall rules. Everything looks to be fine. Appreciate your valuable suggestions.

Solution

  • The public IP got blocked because of Rate Limiting at the target system which was causing this timeout in my scenario. Updating with the actual solution. Hope it might help someone if they face any similar issue.
