        # can use this method to load in new data for the actual backing
        # machine or to realize that the machine is now gone (the ID can
        # become `nil`). No parameters are given, since the underlying machine
        # is simply the machine instance given to this object. And no

        # This should return a hash of information that explains how to
        # SSH into the machine. If the machine is not at a point where
        # SSH is even possible, then `nil` should be returned.
        #
        # The general structure of this returned hash should be the
        # following:
        #
        #     {
        #       :host => "1.2.3.4",
        #       :port => "22",
        #       :username => "mitchellh",
        #       :private_key_path => "/path/to/my/key"
        #     }
        #
        # **Note:** Vagrant only supports private key based authentication,
        # mainly for the reason that there is no easy way to exec into an
        # `ssh` prompt with a password, whereas we can pass a private key
        # via commandline.
        #
        # @return [Hash] SSH information. For the structure of this hash
        #   read the accompanying documentation for this method.
        def ssh_info
          nil
        end

        # This should return the state of the machine within this provider.
        # The state can be any symbol.
