Session timeout is a System-level setting that specifies the amount of inactive time that can pass before users are automatically logged out of the Administrator Console or User Console. Auto-refresh settings are user-level settings that determine the frequency with which console pages are refreshed.
You can configure session timeout to meet your security requirements.
1. |

If the Organization component is not enabled on the appliance, log in to the appliance Administrator Console, https://appliance_hostname/admin, then select Settings > Control Panel. |
◦ |
If the Organization component is enabled on the appliance, log in to the appliance System Administration Console, https://appliance_hostname/system, or select System in the drop-down list in the top-right corner of the page, then select Settings > Control Panel. |

In the General Settings section, click the Customize general configurations option to display the General Options tab on the General Settings page. |
Set the number of inactive hours to allow before closing user sessions and requiring users to log in again. The default is 1. The User Console and Administrator Console have Timeout Session counters to alert users of this time limit. Only periods of inactivity are counted. The counter restarts when the user performs any action that causes the console to interact with the appliance server, such as refreshing a window, saving changes, and changing windows. When a session reaches 60 seconds before the timeout, a message box appears, allowing you to extend the session, or to log off. Once the counter reaches the limit, the user is logged out, unsaved changes are lost, and the login screen appears. The Timeout Session counter appears in the upper right of each console. |
4. |
Setting the refresh frequency to 30 seconds or less is useful for pages that display status, such as the Provisioning Results page and the Devices page. On other pages, such as the Software Catalog page, a longer refresh rate, or turning auto refresh off, might be more appropriate, because these pages can take longer to refresh.
1. |
Log in to the appliance Administrator Console, https://appliance_hostname/admin. Or, if the Show organization menu in admin header option is enabled in the appliance General Settings, select an organization in the drop-down list in the top-right corner of the page next to the login information. |
