For activate slave node login into slave node's machine and copy Launch file here and Run it.
After, Successfully connected it shows one small pop-up for connection. Click on File > Install as a service
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.
