ASA SSH Timeout

[Patrick McHenry]

Hi,

How can I increase the sesion timeout for SSH. Looks like I am limited to 60 minutes. Is there a way to increase this?

Thank you

AP-ASA-5520(config)# ssh timeout ?

configure mode commands/options:

  <1-60>  Idle time in minutes after which a ssh session will be closed

You can use the MPF configuration to set the SSH timeout, but I am uncertain if you can go past 60 min.... but might be worth a try.

Patrick,

You are correct, maximum ssh timeout is 60 minutes for a idle connection.

Dude give me a chance - got a lot going on at the moment. I tried to give you 5 from my phone but it won't let me for what ever reason. Sorry about that.
