Jenkins uses a Master-Slave architecture to manage distributed builds. In this architecture, Master and Slave communicate through TCP/IP protocol.
In this tutorial, we learn how to add Jenkins slave node in Linux machine.

Go to Manage Jenkins > Configure Global Security
Scroll down and find Agents Section and click on Fixed port or random port.
Step 2: Add node
Go to Manage Jenkins > Manage Nodes
Click on New Node and give Node name.

Step 3: Activate Node
Now you can see Slave node is added successfully. But it is offline. To activate the slave node Click on Launch agent.
Go to Jenkins Master and Check, Now Jenkins Successfully connected with the slave node.
Now you can create a distributed job and build on the slave node.
