Can someone please help me understand https://wiki.jenkins-ci.org/display/JENKINS/Slave+To+Master+Access+Control ?

have some jobs that are configured to run on a specific slave. These jobs are only dedicated to run on the specific slaves via the use of labels. Therefore, should i turn ON the access control or leave it OFF?
What is the definition of a 'Trusted Slave' in this context?

The slaves were built by me and I am the administrator for both the master and the slave nodes.

How can I tell if a slave is executing anything on the master? I don't think it is currently doing so. How can I confirm this?

Ashish, I think if your slaves are dedicated Jenkins build slaves and not used by anybody else, then you leave the subsystem off. This is the situation I have and I left it off.

 

How can I tell if a slave is executing anything on the master? I don't think it is currently doing so. How can I confirm this?

 

A job runs entirely ON the slave machine except for a small thread on the master that starts and sends commands to the slave. I guess you can look for a folder called Workspace in the Jobs/your-job/ area on the Master.
