You can only use the Generate-Session-Timeout attribute if your user account database is either a Security Accounts Manager (SAM) database or the user account database for an Active Directory domain. When the value of Generate-Session-Timeout is set to True, the ForceLogoff value for a SAM database should be set to 0 (zero). In Local Security Settings, ForceLogoff is set to 0 when Network security: Force logoff when logon hours expire is enabled. For more information, see Edit security settings on a Group Policy object. For information about changing the ForceLogoff value for the SAM database at the command prompt, see Net accounts.
You can configure wireless connection policy so that wireless clients periodically reauthenticate. This ensures that the client Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) encryption keys are changed often enough to provide adequate security for the wireless connection. To configure reauthentication, set the session timeout in your remote access policy or connection request policy for wireless connections (using the Session-Timeout attribute) to the interval you prefer (for example, 10 minutes). Additionally, configure the Termination-Action attribute with Attribute value set to RADIUS-Request. If the Termination-Action attribute is not set to RADIUS-Request, wireless access points might end the connection during reauthentication. For more information, see your hardware documentation.
Information about functional differences
- Your server might function differently based on the version and edition of the operating system that is installed, your account permissions, and your menu settings. For more information, see Viewing Help on the Web.
