Hi,

yes we can do that.. On the WLAN >> EDIT >> Advanced >> Session Time out >> Set the time in seconds. The clients will have to reconnect to the network at the time the session timeout expires..

lemme know if this answered ur question and please dont forget to rate the usefull posts!!

hi surendra,

thanks for u r post.

I recently had the same issue. We wanted to be able to limit guest accounts (created local on the controller) to only 24hrs.  I ended up using a seperate guest management solution called identity network guest manager.  Cisco also has a Guest manager appliance, though its about twice as much in cost and is appliance based.
