Enumeration
If you want to start any vulnerable machine hacking , the first step is scanning that machine and there are number of tools which you can use for scanning like Nmap ,rustscan. I personally use Nmap.
Use command namp -sV 192.168.137.141(ip of Metasploitable)
PORT 21 FTP
Ftp is protocol which is used to transfer files within a network. This port is open that means we can exploit it and gain access of ftp server. Open your terminal and type msfconsole to load Metasploit.
Now you can search for the exploit of your version number i.e. vsftpd 2.3.4 by typing search vsftpd.2.3.4 in msfconsole
This is the exploit you have found , check its rank it is excellent ,now type use and name of exploit to start it .set rhost as victims ip and then type exploit.
