Configure the allow list for the firewall in the internet perimeter zone to allow access to these endpoints. After you deploy the firewall access rules, you can use a utility, such as [GNU Netcat](https://netcat.sourceforge.net/), to test that the edge device can reach the endpoints in the AWS Cloud. The following is an example command that tests connectivity.

```
$ nc -z data.iotsitewise.us-east-1.amazonaws.com 443
Connection to data.iotsitewise.us-east-1.amazonaws.com port 443 [tcp/https] succeeded!
```

After you have successfully validated connectivity, deploy AWS IoT Greengrass V2 and the AWS IoT SiteWise Edge gateway. For more information, see [Setting up AWS IoT Greengrass V2](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/greengrass/v2/developerguide/setting-up.html) and [Using AWS IoT SiteWise gateways](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/iot-sitewise/latest/userguide/gateways-ggv2.html).
