Question

Answer 1

The error indicates that your the machine you are running this script on cannot reach the destination IP address (10.0.2.2), as it doesn't have a network route configured from one to the other.

This is a problem with your internal network (10.x.x.x IP addresses are always private network addresses). If you are running this script on a different network from the machine you are trying to reach, you'll need a public IP address for it instead.
