Getting following error while installing react native

Question

ran the follwing command:

npm install -g react-native-cli

The error:

25 silly fetchPackageMetaData Error: connect ETIMEDOUT 151.101.72.162:443
25 silly fetchPackageMetaData     at Object.exports._errnoException (util.js:1050:11)

25 silly fetchPackageMetaData   code: 'ETIMEDOUT',
25 silly fetchPackageMetaData   errno: 'ETIMEDOUT',
25 silly fetchPackageMetaData   syscall: 'connect',
25 silly fetchPackageMetaData   address: '151.101.72.162',
25 silly fetchPackageMetaData   port: 443 }

I think the issue is mostly about proxy: Also tried setting the proxy using command:

set HTTP_PROXY=http://your_proxy:your_port

Any help will be appreciated. Thanks

Possible duplicate of [Is there a way to make npm install (the command) to work behind proxy?](http://stackoverflow.com/questions/7559648/is-there-a-way-to-make-npm-install-the-command-to-work-behind-proxy). Port 443 is SSL, so you need to `set HTTPS_PROXY` too. — Ken Y-N, May 12 '17 at 04:59
I think i have added that answer in the question,But it didnt worked.@KenY-N — Rohan Gala, May 12 '17 at 05:01
Alright, this is more likely a issue with your network settings or proxy. Can you connect with some other network then try it — Ajay S, May 12 '17 at 05:06
ran the following command :`npm set strict-ssl=false`.Done Issue Resolved.Thanks @TGMCians — Rohan Gala, May 12 '17 at 05:18
