问题
I have setup a Jenkins master and I want to add a slave node in the same network. Do I need to install Jenkins on the slave machine? Or can I use any arbitrary machine without having to install Jenkins on it first?
回答1:
No, you don't need to install Jenkins in any slave machine at all.
You will need, if it is a Linux slave, just SSH access enabled. If it is a Windows machine, then Java and connect with the jar provided by Jenkins or through Java Web client.
On Linux and for Java, Jenkins will download anything he needs.

No need to install jenkins on slave machine , you just ned to download slave.jar in your slave machine and you can connnect slave using TCP port for JNLP agents .
