Testing the application from multiple sources

Assuming the Terraform IaC you applied in the previous sections deployed without any problems, you will now be able to connect to the test application from three different entry points. One entry point is in AWS Wavelength, one is in an AWS Local Zone, and one is in the parent AWS Region.

ping 155.146.49.82 -c 2
