In this challenge, you will create a launch template, and then you will launch an Amazon Elastic Cloud Compute (Amazon EC2) instance from the template. First, you will configure a key pair, and then you will configure a security group. Next, you will create a launch template based on an Amazon Machine Image (AMI), and then you will launch an EC2 instance by using the template. Finally, you will establish an SSH terminal connection to the EC2 instance by using PuTTy. Note: Once you begin the challenge, you will not be able to pause, save, or exit and then return to your challenge. Please ensure that you have set aside enough time to complete the challenge before you start.
