Session Timeouts in Cisco FTD

[dhr.tech1]

1        Introduction

We can use Firepower Threat defence Service Policies to apply services to specific traffic classes. For example, you can use a service policy to create a timeout configuration that is specific to a particular TCP application, as opposed to one that applies to all TCP applications. A service policy consists of multiple actions or rules applied to an interface or applied globally.

Note: To modify the global parameters of timeouts in Cisco FTD, we can use platform policies, as shown below.

Device > Platform Settings > Platform Setting Policy
