Welcome to our new Microsoft Q&A Platform.

1.If we run below command in command prompt (ran as admin)on myjumpserver01 ,will all 20 servers in trust list on myjumpserver01,can you check it?
Get-Item WSMan:\localhost\Client\TrustedHosts
For adding the remote server to trustshots like this
winrm set winrm/config/client '@{TrustedHosts="192.168.2.54,192.168.2.59"} '
