User Idle Timeout, LWAP

leam2 — Mon, 05 Jul 2021 15:37:01 GMT

Hello,

The Wi-fi AP model is AIR-AP1832I-E-K9.

Question 1: in Cisco mobility express command line interface, I would like to increase the "User Idle Timeout" which is set to 300 seconds by default. What is the command to execute?

Question 2: In the Cisco Mobility Express Command Reference, there is a section "LWAP commands", what does "LWAP" stand for?

Thanks.

Best regards.

LWAP - Light Weigth Access Point

Regarding User Idle time out, you should be able to do it like below on CLI. Should be able to change via GUI as well.

config wlan disable <WLAN id>

config wlan usertimeout <seconds> <WLAN id>

config wlan enable <WLAN id>

Hello,

Thank you for your answer.

I am talking about the five minutes (300 seconds) after which we are automatically disconnected from the (Cisco Controller) CLI and have to re-enter the login and password...
I would typically set it to 30 minutes if I knew how to do it...

oh ok.

It is session time out.

If you want SSH session time out, use below command

(WLC1) >config sessions timeout ?
[0-160] Enter time in minutes.

If you want console session time out, then

(WLC1) >config serial timeout ?
[0-9600] Enter time in seconds

make sure you do "save config" to save your configurations at the end.

Thank you for your answers (also about LWAP).

(Cisco Controller) > config serial timeout <timeout>

solved my problem.
