Examine or Modify the Lighthouse Session Settings

To modify Web and CLI session settings:

1. In the Settings Pane, select > SYSTEM > General Settings.
   The GENERAL SETTINGS page displays with the SESSION SETTINGS tab selected.

2. Enter the Web Session Timeout.
   This value can be set from 1 to 1440 minutes.

3. Enter the CLI Session Timeout.
   This value can be set from 1 to 1440 minutes or set it to 0 to disable the timeout. Changes take effect the next time a user logs in via the CLI.

4. If required, select Enabled for Alternate API Port Status.
   This port is set to 8443. Enabling this API allows users who are using NAT for the Lighthouse to expose an external port publicly only for nodes that are attempting to enroll to the Lighthouse, and not for the other functionality available from the REST API. After this option is disabled, all endpoints should be accessible as per normal usage.

5. Click Apply.
