Ansible Ping Module Usage
⚙️ Ansible Level 2 - Day 1: Ansible Ping Module Usage | Ansible Series
Welcome to Day 1 of the Ansible Level 2 Series! In this lab, you'll learn how to verify connectivity between the Ansible control node and managed hosts using the Ansible Ping module.
📌 Lab Objective:
Test communication between the Ansible controller and a managed node to ensure password-less SSH authentication and Ansible connectivity are functioning correctly.
🛠️ Task Requirements:
Ansible Controller:
🔹 Jump Host
🔹 User: thor
Inventory File:
🔹 /home/thor/ansible/inventory
Target Host:
🔹 App Server 2 (stapp02)
Task:
🔹 Verify Ansible connectivity using the Ping module
🔹 Ensure password-less SSH access is working
💻 What You’ll Configure & Verify:
🔹 Validate Ansible inventory configuration
🔹 Test controller-to-node communication
🔹 Verify SSH key-based authentication
🔹 Execute Ansible ad-hoc commands
