Ansible SSH Authentication Assumption

From bib. source

Ansible assumes you’re using passwordless (key-based) login for SSH (e.g., you login by entering ssh username@example.com and don’t have to type a password).

That is, make sure that you have already set up your SSH servers with passwordless (i.e., key-based) authentication.
