Hi,
Access to Microsoft Azure Portal is not blocked, it can still be accessed like a normal website. But it is indeed very inconvenient that SSH, RDP and peer to peer are blocked.
A student doing a final year project can request to have a dedicated/ static IP where the ports are not blocked. But everything that you’ll do with this privilege will be closely monitored.
Regards,

Hello Nayar,
To answer your question: Yes, Skype does work on both WiFi connection and Wired connection in Project lab/Phase 2 of University of Mauritius :)
I have personally tested it. If you want some high speed quotation, the project lab is the best place.
As said, RDP, Torrent, SSH and access to Windows Azure is blocked :)

Hi, on which network?
On wifi idk, but most probably you wont be able to call due to the number of users connect.
For the labs i think it will work, some friends were chatting with me, didn't try calling though. But the connection there is very fast, i think 10Mb
FYI: torrent is blocked :/
