478CHAPTER 21: CONFIGURING AAA FOR NETWORK USERS

To change the Web Portal WebAAA session timeout period, use the following command:

set service-profile name web-portal-session-timeout seconds

You can specify from 5 – 2,800 seconds. The default is 5 seconds. Note that the Web Portal WebAAA session timeout period applies only to Web Portal WebAAA sessions already authenticated with a username and password. For all other Web Portal WebAAA sessions, the default Web Portal WebAAA session timeout period of 5 seconds is used.

Configuring the Web You can configure Web Portal WebAAA to allow a user to manually Portal Logout terminate his or her session. When this feature is enabled, after a Web

Function Portal WebAAA user is successfully authenticated and redirected to the requested page, a pop-under window appears behind the user’s browser. The window contains a button labeled “End Session”. When the user clicks this button, a URL is requested that terminates the user session in the Mobility Domain.

The user’s logout request is sent to one of the WX switches in the Mobility Domain. It does not have to be the WX that the user was authenticated on, or the WX where the user session currently resides. The WX receiving the logout request determines which WX switch has the user session. If it is a local session, the session is terminated. If another WX switch in the Mobility Domain has the session, then it redirects the request to that WX.

This feature is useful for allowing Web Portal users a way to manually log out of the network, instead of waiting to be logged out automatically when the Web Portal WebAAA session timeout period expires.

To enable the Web Portal logout functionality, use the following command:

set service-profile profile-nameweb-portal-logout mode {enable disable}

To specify a Web Portal logout URL, use the following command:

set service-profile profile-nameweb-portal-logout logout-url url
