HTTP/CLI Session Configuration

The hyper text transfer protocol (HTTP) and command line interface (CLI) session configuration feature
allows the user to set HTTP and CLI session timeout parameters, as well as set security requirements for
the switch.
The session timeout duration is the length of time that a session remains active if there is no GUI activity.
If a session is inactive for a time exceeding the timeout duration, the user will be logged out.
To modify the HTTP and CLI configurations:
Step 1 From the menu, select Maintenance.
Step 2 Click HTTP/CLI Session Config. The HTTP/CLI Session Configuration screen is displayed.
