Configuring a WLAN
The Wireless Edge Services xl Module forces stations that have been idle for
a certain period of time to reassociate.
Note Stations handle the reassociation in the background; users may not even
notice the process.
The time that a station can be idle before reassociating is the inactivity timeout
and is configured for all stations on a particular WLAN. To set this time, follow
these steps:
1. Access the WLAN’s Edit screen.
2. Under Advanced, enter a value between 60 and 86400 seconds (one day)
in the Inactivity Timeout field.
The default timeout is 1800 seconds (30 minutes).
In Figure 3-34, the administrator has lowered the timeout to 300 seconds (five
minutes).
