Session time-out
By enabling the Video Session Timeout option, you allow the switch to close an inactive video
session after a specified number of minutes. The Video Session Preemption Timeout option allows
you to specify the time (5 - 120 seconds) for which a preemption warning message appears before a
video session is preempted. If this option is not enabled, preemption occurs without warning.
To enable, disable or configure the session time-out:
1. Select the Configure tab, then select Appliance - Sessions.
2. Select the desired setting for the Session Timeout box.
3. If necessary, select the time limit for Inactivity Timeout.
NOTE: It is possible for two users to select the same server at the same time. Each may enter information at the
same time, so care must be taken to avoid errors.
