ReAuthentication
Timer
Specify how often wireless clients have to resend user names and passwords in
order to stay connected. Enter a time interval between 600 and 65535 seconds.
If wireless client authentication is done using a RADIUS server, the
reauthentication timer on the RADIUS server has priority.
Idle Timeout
The ZyWALL automatically disconnects a wireless client from the wireless network
after a period of inactivity. The wireless client needs to send the username and
password again before it can use the wireless network again. Some wireless
clients may prompt users for a username and password; other clients may use
saved login credentials. In either case, there is usually a short delay while the
wireless client logs in to the wireless network again.
This value is usually smaller when the wireless network is keeping track of how
much time each wireless client is connected to the wireless network (for example,
using an authentication server). If the wireless network is not keeping track of this
information, you can usually set this value higher to reduce the number of delays
caused by logging in again.
Enter a time interval between 600 and 65535 seconds.
