Inactivity Timer
Type how many minutes a management session (either via the web configurator or
SMT) can be left idle before the session times out. The default is 5 minutes. After it
times out you have to log in with your password again. Very long idle timeouts may
have security risks. A value of "0" means a management session never times out,
no matter how long it has been left idle (not recommended).
