Description

Defines a timeout (in minutes) for TLC Console user sessions. If a user is inactive for the specified number of minutes, TLC will terminate the session.

Reserve Logon

Reserves a logon session for the selected User Accounts.

Password Expiration Period

Specifies the number of days (0-120) the passwords of User Accounts will remain valid. Whenever a user resets their password, the new password will expire in the specified number of days.

To restore this setting to its default value of 90 days, click Set Default in the Configuration Item dialog.

Note: This setting does not apply to User Accounts for which the Auth method in the General tab of the Edit User dialog is set to Radius, LDAP/Active Directory, or Single sign-on (see Table 59).

Whenever a user logs in to the TLC Console from that day until the expiration date, TLC will present the user with a notification of the pending expiration. For example, if this value is set to 14 and a user has a password that will expire in 12 days, TLC will present the warning if the user logs in to the TLC Console.

To restore this setting to its default value of 7 days, click Set Default in the Configuration Item dialog.
