The VM is running. To stop this VM, you can run `vagrant halt` to
shut it down forcefully, or you can run `vagrant suspend` to simply
suspend the virtual machine. In either case, to restart it again,
simply run `vagrant up`.

# ssh to the vm
vagrant ssh

C:\Users\lingx\OneDrive\Documents\shellscripting\testbox01>vagrant ssh
[vagrant@localhost ~]$
