Enable timeout

After an extended period, when the timeout feature for the store is enabled, your storefront session is logged off. Session timeout settings can be changed for the enhanced security of the site.

• Enable login timeout for a cookie-based session
  When the login timeout feature is enabled, a logged on cookie-based session that is inactive for an extended period, such as a web or mobile storefront session, is logged off the system and requested to log back on. If the user then logs on successfully, WebSphere Commerce runs the original request that was made by the user. If the user logon fails, the original request is discarded and the user remains logged off the system.

• Changing web services session timeout
  Web services sessions, including Management Center, remain active for a specific time period. The session uses a leasing concept and is stored in the WebSphere Commerce configuration file. When the lease expires, the user is logged off the system. To change the active time period, update the configuration file.
