seconds Number of seconds a CLI management session can remain idle before
WSS Software terminates the session. You can specify from 0 to 86400
seconds (one day). If you specify 0, the idle timeout is disabled.
The timeout interval is in 30-second increments. For example, the
interval can be 0, or 30 seconds, or 60 seconds, or 90 seconds, and so on.
If you enter an interval that is not divisible by 30, the CLI rounds up to
the next 30-second increment. For example, if you enter 31, the CLI
rounds up to 60.
