The problem is following.

I have Jenkins running on local machine (8080 port).
I've created linux instance in private cloud to use it as slave node for Jenkins.
I'm connecting to this linux node via Putty and logging in.
Trying to download agent.jar file, that needed for node connection using following command:

wget http://<my_ip>:8080/jnlpJars/agent.jar
But everything I get - is Connecting to <my_ip>:8080... Connection timed out.
The IP address has been taken using cmd>ipconfig>Wireless Lan Adapter WiFi>IPv4 Address.
At the same time, I have the VPN running on local machine (otherwise I won't be able to connect to private cloud, where linux node is located). Is it possible that I'm getting incorrect ip via ipconfig?

So what am I doing wrong?

Can you ping your IP from the Linux node? – M B Sep 07 '22 at 06:14
@MB hmm, can you suggest how to do that correctly? – endurance2296 Sep 11 '22 at 10:32

Simply use `ping `. This command should get executed from the Linux node, so if your node is a VM, then ssh into the vm and execute the above command – M B Sep 12 '22 at 03:12
