2. The application user should have full permission to access the agent directory.
   
3. The server hosting the application should have internet connectivity, either directly or via a proxy server.
4. Ensure the specified ports and IPs are added to the allow list to enable the agent to communicate with the Site24x7 server, as outlined in this document.
   
5. Please verify the reachability from your environment to the Site24x7 endpoint by executing one of the following commands.
   For Linux:
   curl -v 'https://plusinsight.site24x7.com'
