Disable the idle time-out for the 2.4 GHz management SSID

By default, the idle time-out for the 2.4 GHz management SSID is 15 minutes. That is, if
you are connected to the 2.4 GHz management SSID but do not make any changes to
the local browser UI for 15 minutes, you are disconnected and the 2.4 GHz management
SSID is turned off.
Only after you reboot the AirBridge can you reconnect to the 2.4 GHz management
SSID. However, you can disable the idle time-out so that the 2.4 GHz management SSID
stays always on.
To disable the idle time-out for the 2.4 GHz management SSID:
1. Open a web browser from a computer that is connected to the same network as the
AirBridge or directly to the AirBridge through an Ethernet cable or WiFi connection.
2. Enter the IP address that is assigned to the AirBridge.
The login page displays.
If your browser does not display the login page but displays a security message and
does not let you proceed, see Log in to the AirBridge after initial setup on page 31.
3. Enter the AirBridge user name and local device password.
