cfgSsnMgtTelnetIdleTimeout (Read or Write)
Description
Defines the Telnet idle timeout. This property sets the amount of time in seconds that a connection is allowed
to remain idle (there is no user input). The session is canceled if the time limit exceeds this property. Changes
to this setting do not affect the current session (you must log out and log in again to make the new settings
effective.)
An expired Telnet session displays the following error message:
• For iDRAC on Rack and Tower Servers: Connection timed out
• For iDRAC Enterprise on Blade Servers: Session timed out. Closing the session.
After the message is displayed, the system returns you to the shell that generated the Telnet session.
Legal Values
• 0 (No timeout)

NOTE: If 0 (no timeout is specified), the network connection does not send alive packets to
probe the client. Otherwise, keep alive packets are sent to guarantee that the client is
responding.
