timeout

Syntax

timeout = number_of_seconds

Description

Integer value for maximum lifetime, in seconds, for an entry in the credential cache.

The value can be configured for a specific session cache (authenticated or unauthenticated) by adding an additional entry, prefixedby auth or unauth.

Options

number_of_seconds
The minimum number for this value is 0. WebSEAL does not impose a maximum value.

A stanza entry value of "0" disables this timeout feature (lifetime value is unlimited). The control of cache entries is then governed by the inactive-timeout and max-entries stanza entries.

When the cache is full, the entries are cleared based on a least-recently-used algorithm.

Usage

This stanza entry is required.

Default value

3600

Example

timeout = 3600
unauth-timeout = 600
