Server Preferences window: Remote Control page
This topic describes the Server Preferences window: Remote Control
page.
Introduction
This
panel allows you to specify that the remote control session be automatically
disconnected if the console is inactive for a specified period of time. A
console is inactive if there is no mouse or keyboard input through the monitoring
console. This setting applies only to consoles in active mode.
Fields

- Terminate connection when remote control console is inactive
- To enable this option, select the check box and enter a value, or use
the up and down buttons to increase or decrease the value in increments of
1. Valid values are 1 - 1440. All timers will restart if the timeout value
is changed while the remote control server is running. When any of the timers
expires, a message is sent to all of the consoles to notify them of the timeout.
To
disable automatic timeout, clear the check box.
- Starting Session State
