Change splunk slave communication frequency to master.

The license slaves communicate their usage to the license master every minute. Is it possible to change communication frequency from every minute to X minute?
I understand consequences however I have limited bandwidth so want to change this.

You can change the setting in the server.conf

[license]
report_interval = <nonnegative integer>[s|m|h]
* Selects a time period for reporting in license usage to the license
  master.
* This value is intended for very large deployments (hundreds of indexers)
  where a large number of indexers may overwhelm the license server.
* The maximum permitted interval is 1 hour, and the minimum permitted
  interval is 1 minute.
* May be expressed as a positive number of seconds, minutes or hours.
* If no time unit is provided, seconds will be assumed.
* Defaults to 1 minute, or 1m.
