Section II: Web Browser Interface 213
The range is 0 to 60 minutes. The default is 5 minutes. A timeout
value of 0 causes the console connection to never times out.
The console idle time out parameter specifies the length of time a
local management session can be inactive before the management
software automatically ends it. The purpose of this parameter is to
prevent unauthorized individuals from configuring the switch should
you leave your management workstation unattended.
This parameter applies to a local management session but not to a
web management session. A web browser management session
remains active so long as your web browser is open.
Note
If you select 0, you must remember to properly log off from a local
management session when you are finished to prevent blocking
future management sessions with the switch.
