Session Options
The Connections > Session Options parameters define the characteristics of the session and
filter specifications:

Timing parameters

The Connections > Session Options timing parameters define how long a session is inactive
before a call is cleared, whether the MAX unit uses the terminal-server idle timer, and how
long a terminal server must be idle before the session disconnects:

Miscellaneous Session Options parameters

The following Connections > Session Options parameters further define the session for an
incoming call:
Parameter Specifies
Data Filter Number of a filter used to determine if packets should be forwarded or
dropped. If both a call filter and data filter are applied to a connection,
the unit applies a call filter after applying a data filter. (Only those
packets that the data filter forwards can reach the call filter.)
Call Filter Number of a filter used to determine if a packet should cause the idle
timer to be reset or a call to be placed. If both a call filter and data filter
are applied to a connection, the unit applies a call filter after applying a
data filter. (Only those packets that the data filter forwards can reach
the call filter.)
Filter Persistence Whether or not the filter or firewall assigned to a Connection profile
should persist after the call has been disconnected.
Parameter Specifies
Idle Number of seconds the unit waits before clearing a call when a session
is inactive.
TS Idle Mode Whether or not the unit uses the terminal-server idle timer and, if so,
whether both the user and host must be idle before the unit disconnects
the session.
TS Idle The number of seconds that a terminal-server connection must be idle
before the unit disconnects the session.
Parameter Specifies
Max Call Duration Maximum duration (in minutes) of an established session for an
incoming call. The connection is checked once per minute, so the
actual time of the call is slightly longer (usually less than a minute
longer) than the actual time you set.
Preempt Number of idle seconds the MAX unit waits before using one of the
channels of an idle link for a new call.
