I'm trying to add Weave Net addon to my kubernetese cluster, while the cluster is within a restricted network, and getting a time out error

Question

I'm using following cmd to add add Weave Net addon to my newly configured kubernetese cluster( which is resides in a restricted network), have used proxy URLS during kubernetese installation.I'm getting following error when executing below command

kubectl apply -f https://github.com/weaveworks/weave/releases/download/v2.8.1/weave-daemonset-k8s.yaml

** Unable to connect to the server: net/http: request canceled while waiting for connection (Client.Timeout exceeded while awaiting headers) **

Tried using wget to download the .yaml file and apply the same cmd, yet getting the same error. can some one suggest a work around for this?

The issue was, I was exporting proxy URLS before executing the above pod network adding command, which make the kubelet to seek pod network configs through proxy(as I believe. proxies are already configured within docker to reach internet) , I opened a new terminal without executing the proxy export and it did the work.
