Web-management interface configuration for idle timeout

An administrator sets the idle timeout for the WebUI management interface and specifies a session timeout page that is displayed to the user when the WebUI management session ends.

Use the following command to configure the Web-management interface for idle timeout:

web-management [management-url <URL>] [support-url <URL>] [plaintext] [ssl<TCP-PORT>] [idle-timeout <300-7200>]

The following parameters are specified to configure the Web-management interface for idle timeout:
Management-url

Specify URL to load when the [?] button is clicked on the device's web interface.

Support-url

Specify URL to load when the Support tab is clicked on the device's web interface.

Plaintext

Indicates that the http server has to be enabled with no security. If no parameters are specified, plaintext is implied. The plaintext server always listens on the well-known port 80.

SSL

Indicates that the http server has to be enabled with Secure Sockets Layer support. TCP port on which the https server must listen for connections. If the TCP port is not specified, the default is port 443.

The ssl and plaintext variants of the command function independently of each other. Enabling http+ssl does not automatically prevent the device from accepting plaintext connections; you must explicitly disable plaintext connections with the command no web-management plaintext.

Idle-timeout

Specifies the idle timeout for web management sessions. This ranges from 300 seconds to 7200 seconds. The default value is 600 seconds.

The following example shows WebUI Idle timeout

switch(config)# web-management
idle-timeout Set the idle timeout for web management sessions.
management-url Specify URL for web interface [?] button.
plaintext Enable or disable the http server (insecure).
ssl Enable or disable the https server (secure).
support-url Specify URL for web interface support page.
switch(config)# web-management idle-timeout
<300-7200> Enter an integer number.
