Click on the icons and the arrow connectors in the architecture diagram and an associated task (if available) will be displayed on the Quiz portal.

2: The bottom half of the interface contains the terminal which you will use to complete the tasks.

To validate if a task is complete, you can click on the “Check” button. If complete, the icons in the Architecture diagram will be highlighted in green. If something is yet to be completed, it will be highlighted in red.
