How to force Jenkins to use ssh slave to build all jobs

I have configured jenkins env and helping us a lot. To speed up tasks (Same server is being used for Testlink),we have setup SSH Slaves (I hate to use this terms, better word would be agents or peers) ..

We would like to force Master (Jenkins server itself) to use slave nodes for building a job.

Can something like this be done?

When You want a job to run on a particular slave, enter a label expression in the Restrict where this project can be run option like shown in the image below. Restrict to a particular slave

And enter the same label in the slave configuration like here. Note: Images are from internet so labels are different in both the images. Please make sure to use same label in both places.

I found similar question at : CI with Jenkins: how to force building happen on slaves instead of master?

Yet to close this thread, solution is

For the master: Manage Jenkins > Configure System > # of executors => Set to 0

And For the slaves (nodes), it is set in Manage Jenkins > Nodes > (each node) > Configure > # of executors
