We were having a look at this plugin in it seemed to help us in the situation: Spawn a Jenkins Slave on AWS from a On-Prem Jenkins Master and open only two TCP ports on the firewall from the Slave to Master. I was surprise about the needed configurations and that a slave then really needs to be reachable over ssh. It would be really nice if we could have just a user-data script (which downlodas the jar from the master and starts the slave JVM).
Beside of the init script functionality what for is ssh connectivity?
