Description
Defines the secure shell idle time-out. This property sets the amount of time (in
seconds) that a connection is allowed to remain idle (there is no user input). The session
is canceled if the time limit exceeds this property. Changes to this setting do not affect
the current session; log out and log in again to make the new settings effective.
An expired secure shell session displays the following error message:
• For iDRAC on Rack and Tower Servers: Connection timed out
• For iDRAC Enterprise on Blade Servers: Session timed out. Closing the
session.
After the message is displayed, the system returns to the shell that generated the Secure
Shell session.
Legal Values
• 0 —(No timeout)

NOTE: If 0 (no timeout), the network connection does not send alive packets to
probe the client. Otherwise, keep alive packets are sent to guarantee that the client
is responding.
