In that case, this is not a true slave (a Jenkins slave), but it's a 'robot framework slave'. You'll need to create a job that runs on the master and uses the framework to connect to, and run work on, the slave.

I prefer the robot framework execution to happen from the master, cause I don't want to install the robot framework on each slave.
