you can either down load this to your laptop and then upload it to the server, or download it dirrectly while logged into the server.
on the server you can do this:
cd /tmp wget https://piston-data.mojang.com/v1/objects/84194a2f286ef7c14ed7ce0090dba59902951553/server.jar
This downloads the server software to a file called "server.jar" in the /tmp directory.
Rename the file to what ever version you down loaded , for example:
mv /tmp/server.jar /tmp/server-1.20.1.jar
now move the file to the minecraft main directory on the server:
mv /tmp/server-1.20.1.jar /data/minecraft_server.1.15.2
