Step 5: Below screen will be loaded after clicking 'Create VM instance'.




Step 6: We need to use the public key we created in Step 2. Click the create button after loading the public key.





Step 7:  Once the Linux instance created, verify whether it's running as below. It may take a few minutes. Copy the public IP and use it to connect to the SSH client.




Step 8: Open the Putty SSH client. In the Host Name box, Paste the copied IP address in Step 7.




Step 9: Load the private key created in Step 3 using the below option.
