Use this command to set the maximum number of seconds an authenticated session may last before termination of the session.
dot1x | IEEE 802.1X Port-based network access control. |
mac | MAC authentication. |
web-based | Web-based authentication. |
timeout | Number of seconds before session timeout (range 0-172800). |
0 seconds.
A value of zero may be superseded by a session timeout value provided by the authenticating server. For example, if a session is authenticated by a RADIUS (Remote Authentication Dial In User Service) server, that server may encode a Session-Timeout Attribute in its authentication response.
The specifications from this command appear in show configuration {module-name} {detail} for "policy" and "netlogin."
This example shows how to set the session-timeout value for an active session, for mac authentication to 500 seconds:
configure netlogin session-timeout mac 500
