EOF occurred in violation of protocol

I am setting up ansible on a new device using the following step.

Machine setup: Windows 10 with WSL enabled

sudo apt-get-y install python-pip python-dev libffi-dev libssl-dev pip install ansible --user echoPATH=$HOME/.local/bin:$PATH>> ~/.bashrc pip install "pywinrm>=0.2.2"

I wrote a simple win_ping module with the correct username and password. It is returning this error

fatal: [192.168.6.1]: UNREACHABLE! => {

“changed”: false,

“msg”: “ssl: HTTPSConnectionPool(host=‘192.168.6.1’, port=5986): Max retries exceeded with url: /wsman (Caused by SSLError(SSLEOFError(8, u’EOF occurred in violation of protocol (_ssl.c:590)'),))”,

“unreachable”: true

}

I’m not sure what I’m doing wrong. My other machine which I also setup using the same credentials with similar steps is currently working fine. Please help.

This is my verbose output
