Validation Commands
After deployment, verify each node is accessible and correctly configured.
SSH Access​
ssh ubuntu@10.0.0.2 # set-hog
ssh ubuntu@10.0.0.4 # fast-skunk
ssh ubuntu@10.0.0.7 # fast-heron
MAAS injects your SSH key automatically — no password needed.
System Check (run on each node)​
hostname # verify correct hostname
ip a # verify IP is in 10.0.0.0/24, no IPv6
free -h # verify ~15.9 GiB RAM
df -h # verify ~512 GB disk
Network Connectivity Test (run from controller)​
ping -c 2 10.0.0.2
ping -c 2 10.0.0.4
ping -c 2 10.0.0.7
All should respond with 0% packet loss.
Expected Final State​
✔ 3 machines deployed
✔ Clean network (10.0.0.0/24)
✔ No IPv6 addresses
✔ SSH working on all nodes
✔ MAAS fully operational
