Abstract
A disclosed method facilitates communications between an edge device and a cloud-based service component via an enterprise proxy without configuring the enterprise proxy to allow access to a service domain associated with the cloud-based service component. The method includes receiving, at a first proxy on the edge device, a service domain connection request from the service agent that specifies a service domain associated with the cloud-based service component. The first proxy responds to the first connection request by transmitting a sequence of nested connection requests including an inner connection request and an outer connection request. The inner connection request establishes a first communication channel between the first proxy and a cloud-based gateway. The outer connection request is transmitted along the first communication channel and establishes a second communication channel between the cloud-based gateway and the service domain requested by the service agent.
