Setting MultiAuth Authentication Timers

The idle timeout setting determines the amount of idle time in which no traffic transits the link for a user or device before the connection is removed from the connection table. The idle timeout can be set for any authentication method.

The session timeout setting determines the maximum amount of time a session can last before being terminated.
