Fabric OS 5.x Advanced Web Tools administrator guide 23
A session remains in effect until one of the following happens:
• You log out.
• You close or navigate away from the Switch Explorer window (if upfront login is enabled).
• You refresh the Switch Explorer window (if upfront login is enabled).
• You close the child window (if upfront login is disabled).
• The session times out due to inactivity.
A session times out if it has been inactive for longer than two hours. Inactivity does not mean that there is
no user activity (such as keystrokes or mouse movements); it means that no information is sent to the switch
(by clicking Apply or Save buttons). For example, in the Zoning module you can spend a lot of time
setting up a zoning scheme without actually sending information to the switch. Advanced Web Tools does
not display a warning when the session is about to time out. If the session times out, you must restart
Advanced Web Tools and log in again.
Advanced Web Tools enables sessions to both secure and nonsecure switches.
