Configuring the Management Session Timer

You should always conclude your management sessions of the access
point by logging off so that if you leave your computer unattended,
someone cannot use it to make unauthorized changes to the parameter
settings of the device.
If you forget to log off, the access point has a timer to detect and log off
inactive management sessions for you, automatically. A session is
considered inactive if there is no management activity for the duration of
the timer.
The default setting for the timer is five minutes.
To configure the management session timer, perform the following
procedure:
1. From the Services menu, select HTTP/HTTPS.
The access point displays the “Configure Web Server Settings”
window. Refer to Figure 45 on page 145.
2. Select the dialog box for Session Timeout (minutes) and enter the new
value. The range is 1 to 1440 minutes. (1440 minutes is one day.) The
default is 5 minutes.
3. Click the Update button to activate and save your change on the
access point.
