Sessions module provides a solution for viewing user session information and managing user sessions. It keeps track of various session times as well as allowing the administrator to invalidate a session. The Session attributes are:
This attribute specifies the maximum number of results returned by a session search. The default value is 120.
This attributed defines the maximum amount of time before a session search terminates. The default value is 5 seconds.
This attribute accepts a value in minutes to express the maximum time before the session expires and the user must reauthenticate to regain access. A value of 1 or higher will be accepted. The default value is 120. Max Session Time limits the validity of the session. It does not get extended beyond the configured value.
To balance the requirements of security and convenience, consider setting the Max Session Time interval to a higher value and setting the Max Idle Time interval to a relatively low value.
This attribute accepts a value (in minutes) equal to the maximum amount of time without activity before a session expires and the user must reauthenticate to regain access. A value of 1 or higher will be accepted. The default value is 30.
To balance the requirements of security and convenience, consider setting the Max Session Time interval to a higher value and setting the Max Idle Time interval to a relatively low value.
This attribute accepts a value (in minutes) equal to the maximum interval before the client contacts Federation Manager to refresh cached session information. A value of 0 or higher will be accepted. The default value is 3. It is recommended that the maximum caching time should always be less than the maximum idle time.
