Field Description Usage tips
Session time
out
The number of minutes that an
administration session (serial port,
HTTPS or SSH) or a FindMe session
may be inactive before the session is
timed out. Default is 30 minutes.
A value of 0 means that session time outs are disabled.
Per-account
session limit
The number of concurrent sessions
that each individual administrator
account is allowed on each VCS.
This includes web, SSH and serial sessions. Session
limits are not enforced on FindMe accounts or the root
account.
A value of 0 turns session limits off.
System
session limit
The maximum number of concurrent
administrator sessions allowed on
each VCS.
This includes web, SSH and serial sessions. Session
limits are not enforced on FindMe accounts or the root
account; however active root account sessions do
count towards the total number of current administrator
sessions.
A value of 0 turns session limits off.
System protection
Automated
protection
service
Determines whether the automated
protection service is active. Default is
Off.
After enabling the service you must go and configure
the specific protection categories.
Web server configuration
Redirect HTTP

HTTPS
Determines whether HTTP requests
are redirected to the HTTPS port.
Default is On.
HTTPS must also be enabled for access via HTTP to
function.
HTTP Strict
Transport
Security
(HSTS)
Determines whether web browsers
are instructed to only ever use a
secure connection to access this

added protection against man-in-the-
middle (MITM) attacks.

header is sent with all responses
from the web server, with a 1 year
expiry time.
Off: the Strict-Transport-Security
header is not sent, and browsers
work as normal.
Default is On.
See below for more information about HSTS.
