How to bypass multiple proxy in jmeter - cmd

I am using the command
jmeter -H proxy -P 4145 -N 10.24.27.57;10.5.213.40;10.5.247.126 -u username -a password
I want to bypass these 3 proxy 10.24.27.57;10.5.213.40;10.5.247.126.
How will it work?

Unfortunately, it won't work. JMeter relies on Java Networking Properties for proxy configuration, which supports only 1 proxy server.
Hard to tell without any further details, but for example you could split your load to 3 machines, each running 1/3 of the load against different proxy.

How to run jenkins with HTTPS on MacOS

I have a MacOS based Machine, and I am running a Jenkins instance on it. It run with HTTP protocol (http://127.0.0.1:8080). I would like to run it SSL security (https://127.0.0.1:8080).
How to achieve this? Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.
I tried running it on 8443 port (127.0.0.1:8443). It didn't work.
If you want your instance to just be available over https, you can configure that with the startup paramters, e.g.:
--httpPort=-1 \
--httpsPort=443 \
--httpsKeyStore=path/to/keystore \
--httpsKeyStorePassword=keystorePassword
The keystore is a Java keystore with your certificate - if you need one, you can use let's encrypt or a self signed one.
For a bigger instance, I would recommend a reverse proxy in front of Jenkins. The documentation how to do this can be found here: https://www.jenkins.io/doc/book/system-administration/reverse-proxy-configuration-with-jenkins/

Connect to Jenkins server via SSH

I was wondering if I can ssh a local instance of Jenkins. When I go to Jenkins CLI menu in the UI, there's a comment saying the below:
You can access various features in Jenkins through a command-line
tool. See the documentation for more details of this feature. To get
started, download jenkins-cli.jar, and run it as follows:
java -jar jenkins-cli.jar -s http://localhost:8080/ -webSocket help
So I tried it and it worked but it only gave a list of limited commands which I can execute. So I searched more and found I can use -ssh instead of -webSocket but I get the same result as -webSocket.
What I want to do is accessing the Jenkins bash so I can test my build scripts.
I'm trying
ssh 127.0.0.1 -p 23 // I set this port in the settings
but I keep getting :
shell request failed on channel 0
is it impossible what I'm trying to do? if not, how can I achieve it?

Jmeter failed to download plugins repository

I need to use jmeter on a working machine without internet access. I installed Apache Jmeter 5.2.1 myself, downloaded plugins-manager.jar and put it into lib / ext directory, then restarted JMeter.
But when I try to go to Jmeter -> Options -> Plugins Manager, I see this error:
If you need add Plugins(jars) to the system without Internet Connection you have to manually download them on another system with internet connect and then you can move the jars to
Jmeter (Folder)
|->Lib (Folder)
|->ext (Folder)
Paste the Jars into the ext folder and restart the Jmeter can solve the problem.
UnknownHostException means that the Plugins Manager is not able to get the address of the plugins repository.
Most probably your machine doesn't have direct Internet connection and requires a proxy in order to reach to the external hosts.
You need to configure JMeter to use your corporate proxy address, port and in some cases username and password, it can be done in 2 ways:
Via JMeter command-line arguments like:
jmeter -E https -H my.proxy.server -P 8000 -u username -a password -N localhost
Via system.properties file (located in "bin" folder of your JMeter installation):
http.proxyHost=my.proxy.server
http.proxyPort=8080
https.proxyHost=my.proxy.server
https.proxyPort=8080
JMeter Plugins Manager respects JMeter's proxy settings so given you're able to successfully execute HTTP Request samplers you should be able to download the plugins as well.

Jmeter Proxy giving 504 gateway timeout error

I have URL which is like this:
https://110.111.72.72:8001?id=username1
when I use the same URL in browser it works fine and return a result but when I use the same in Jmeter I get a 504 Gateway Timeout error.
In my organisation we do have the proxy which I have mentioned in the browser LAN -> proxy server settings.
I have tried many things but none worked please help.
You need to configure JMeter to use the same proxy server your browser is using. It can be done in 2 ways:
Via command-line arguments. In this case you will need to run JMeter as:
jmeter -H your_company_proxy_host -P your_company_proxy_port-u username -a password
Via Java System Network Properties. In this case you will need to add the following lines to system.properties file (located in "bin" folder of your JMeter installation)
http.proxyHost=your_company_proxy_host
http.proxyPort=your_company_proxy_port
https.proxyHost=your_company_proxy_host
https.proxyPort=your_company_proxy_port

Thanks Dmitri T
jmeter -H your_company_proxy_host -P your_company_proxy_port-u username -a password ---- Worked Fine
I didn't try the 2nd option.
Thanks for solving another

JMeter Behind proxy for load test

I have a requirement to do load test on server which runs behind a proxy. We are using shell script for performing load test(16 concurrent calls).
Please advice if I can port those script to JMeter to do load test behind proxy.
Yes, you can, check out Using JMeter behind a proxy chapter of the JMeter User Manual, the options are in:
Use -H and -P command-line arguments like:
jmeter -H your_proxy_host -P your_proxy_port -n -t test.jmx -l result.jtl
Use http.proxyHost and http.proxyPort Java System properties like:
jmeter -Dhttp.proxyHost=your_proxy_host -Dhttp.proxyPort=your_proxy_port -n -t test.jmx -l result.jtl
You can make the changes "permanent" by adding the next lines to system.properties file (lives in "bin" folder of your JMeter installation)
http.proxyHost=your_proxy_host
http.proxyPort=your_proxy_port
JMeter restart will be required to pick the properties up
For more information on points 2 and 3 see Configuring JMeter and Apache JMeter Properties Customization Guide
How do you know that your proxy will not become the bottleneck for your testing efforts? The least scale-able item in the path will govern the perceived performance of your clients.
