Configuring The Web Portal Webaaa Session Timeout Period - D-Link DWS-1008 - AirPremier MobileLAN Switch Product Manual

Configuring the Web Portal WebAAA Session Timeout
When a client that has connected through Web Portal WebAAA enters standby or hibernation mode,
MSS may place the client's Web Portal WebAAA session in the Deassociated state.
A Web Portal WebAAA session can be placed in the Deassociated state under the following
circumstances:
• The client has been idle for the User idle-timeout period, which can happen when the client
is in standby or hibernation mode
• The client explicitly deassociates from the AP by sending an 802.11 disassociate
message
• The AP handling the client's session appears to be inoperative from the switch
When a Web Portal WebAAA session enters the Deassociated state, it stays in that state until one of
the following takes place:
• The client reappears on this AP or another AP managed by a switch, at which time the
Web Portal WebAAA session enters the Active state
• The Web Portal WebAAA session is terminated administratively
• The Web Portal WebAAA session timeout period expires, at which time the Web Portal
WebAAA session is terminated automatically
By default, the Web Portal WebAAA session timeout period is 5 seconds. You can optionally change the
length of the Web Portal WebAAA Session Timeout period.
This can be useful if you want to allow a client connecting through Web Portal WebAAA to enter standby
or hibernation mode, then be able to resume its session after waking up, without having to log in
again.
To change the Web Portal WebAAA session timeout period, use the following command:
set service-profile name web-portal-session-timeout seconds
You can specify from 5 – 2,800 seconds. The default is 5 seconds. Note that the Web Portal WebAAA
session timeout period applies only to Web Portal WebAAA sessions already authenticated with a
username and password. For all other Web Portal WebAAA sessions, the default Web Portal WebAAA
session timeout period of 5 seconds is used.
