Session Timeout Functions
By default, a user is never logged off automatically unless the value for the logon session timeout
is manually changed.
If the value for logon session timeout has been changed, the console starts a timer after a user
logs in and monitors the user's activities. If a user is idle for more than a set duration, the console
logs the user out automatically.

minutes - The duration (in minutes) that must elapse before the console logs off an
