Creating a Login Banner
Before establishing a user session via the WebUI, the TOE displays an initial banner regarding unauthorized use. The message is displayed before the session is established. You can change this message to your organization's specific advisory notice and warning message regarding unauthorized use of the system. For information about defining the login banner, see Creating a Login Banner.

Modifying the Session Timeout Setting
You can set the length of idle time before an administrative session to the WebUI times out. The default timeout value is 600 seconds (10 minutes). If an admin does not interact with the application for the specified time, the TOE displays a message that a timeout has occurred. The admin is then required to lag back in to Grid Manager. For information about setting the session timeout, see Modifying the Session Timeout Setting.
