WLAN - session timeout

[CSCO10662744_2]

Was told it's best ISE practice to configure session timeout of something > 7200 sec (2+ hours).

What if we don't enable session timeout at all? (WLAN/Advanced, "Enable Session Timeout" )

What would be the security/operation implication, if any?

Does that mean client would only need to authenticate once, and can stay on, w/o having to go through 802.1x authentication the whole day?

Is there a default session timeout value?

Here is a post on those timeout parameters

As far as I understand, larger session timeout values could lead to your wireless stats bit skew. Otherwise there is no adverse impact of increasing it.
