+This exercise makes you use facts to adapt content
+
+## Playbook modification
+Improve the playbook you created in the previous step to use the FQDN (*Fully Qualified Domain Name*) gathered as a fact instead of the inventory hostname.
+
+## Validation
+Run the playbook and then try to connect to each host to validate you see the customized banner on ssh connection.
+
+There is a working playbook in `solution/solution.yml`
