This script will take care of generating an ssh key pair, distributing it across all three nodes. This script should be manually triggered once all three VM build is completed.

VAGRANT VIRTUALHOSTX INSTALL

# Install ansible using pip only in controller node

VAGRANT VIRTUALHOSTX UPDATE

Password based authentication will be disabled by default and enabling it so password based auth can be done. # vagrant by default creates its own keypair for all the machines.

VagrantfileĪll configurations related to the VM are stored in this file. Let me give you a brief introduction to each file.

Let us navigate inside the project directory to see what files are present. Run the following command to clone the repository locally. I have hosted all the required files to setup Ansible lab in my GitHub repository. Here I am setting up only three nodes for my lab but you can add as many managed nodes as you wish when setting up your own lab. Here is the details of my Ansible lab setup. For demonstration purpose, I am using ubuntu/focal64 vagrant box. One node will be acting as master/controller node and two nodes will be acting as managed nodes. We will build a three-node ansible lab setup. If you haven't installed Vagrant yet, please refer the following guide to install Vagrant on different Linux distributions. Understanding Vagrantfile ConfigurationĪs a prerequisite, you need to have Vagrant and Virtualbox installed on your Linux machine.
