Screenshot of win_ping (PING / PONG) Guided Practice Questions After you have completed the procedure for the guided practice, provide your answers to the guided practice questions here. 1. What is executed on the command line using the command !42 It is a shortcut to a previous command used, now, depending on when the command was used would reflect the number that would be needed to be typed vs the entire command. 2. What must be set on the destination machines if you put their IP address in /etc/ansible/hosts file? Ansible_connection=winrm in the host vars section of the inventory file so that ansible engine does not keep trying to connect to windows host using SSH.

Ansible_winrm_server_cert_validation=ignore: the “Configure Remoting for Ansible” script set things up with the self-signed cert, python needs to be disabled as far as validation because its not going to be from a valid CA. 3. Why is it necessary to install pywinrm? It is necessary for using WinRM. Pywinrm dependencies are not shipped with Ansible Engine (not installed) 4. What is WinRM, and why does it need to be configured to enable an Ansible connection? WinRM, is a Windows feature that lets administrators run management scripts remotely, by implementing the WS-Management Protocol. WinRM ships in the box, meaning it is already installed and just needs to be activated, this is why we used the Configure Remoting for Ansible script, to turn it “ON” (WinRM).
