The purpose of the timeout is to clear memory resources. The larger the timeout value, the longer Endpoint Management Console retains the memory resources, which might have a negative impact on the long-term performance of the device from which you have launched Endpoint Management Console.
You can set the Endpoint Management Console timeout value in the Management Zone.
To change the Endpoint Management Console timeout value on a Endpoint Management Server:
In Endpoint Management Console, go to Configuration > Infrastructure Management > Session Management Settings.
In the Session Management Settings page, you can enable the Endpoint Management Console session timeout. If an administrator is not active for the configured value (in minutes), then the session times out.
If the configured value is more than 5 minutes, the session timeout warning can be configured to display a pop-up before 5 minutes, but this is not configured by default. By viewing the displayed prompt, the administrator can either extend the session or ignore the warning.
Configuration behavior: Following are some of the configurational behavior of the Session Management Settings:
The configured value takes effect for all subsequent logins and does not apply to current sessions.
If the configured session timeout value is set to less than 5 minutes, the session timeout pop-up is disabled, and the administrator is prompted to log in again when the session expires.
The session timeout value can be 1 to 60 (max).
