Question:
Refer to the exhibit. A user is working on Ansible on the local NMS to manage remote network devices. The user issues the ansible webservers -m ping command to test the communication. However, an error message returns. What are two possible causes for the error? (Choose two.)

• The SSH credential is wrong.
• The destination host IP address is wrong.
• The switch -m should be -M
• The SSH client is not installed.
• The destination host alias is wrong.
• The SSH service does not start on the host.

Explanation: Ansible uses an inventory file called hosts that contains device information used by Ansible playbooks. The hosts file begins with an alias for the remote. After the alias, the hosts file specifies three variables that will be used by the Ansible playbook to access the device. These are the SSH credentials Ansible needs to securely access the remote host. The error message indicates that the SSH server on the destination host cannot be reached. The possible issue is either the SSH server is not running or the IP address configured in the hosts file is wrong.
