Create an EC2 machine in the Stockholm (eu-north-1) region
Choose the right EC2 instance.
Select the Instance type as t3.micro and above because t2.micro doesn’t support IPv6. if you’re using the Free tier, ensure that your t3.micro is “Free tier eligible”

Select the security group
Choose the security group that we had created on the last page

Create an instance.
Create an instance and copy the private-key that will help you to do ssh and scp to the ec2 machine. There are other ways as well to get shell access of your machine without exposing IPv4 like Systems Manager but that is out of the scope of this blog.
