Extend CUCM Admin timeout

[MitelInMyBlood]

I had previously inquired about how to extend the annoyingly short session timer for CUCM Admin sessions.

Recently a co-worker stumbled onto how to do this and shared the info with me. You do it from the command line, ie, using something like Putty, etc., you telnet to the box and log in. Once there the command syntax is:

set cli session timeout x

where 'x' can be any value between 5 and 99999 minutes. i.e., to extend the session timer from the default 30 minutes to 90 minutes the command would be:

set cli session timer 5400

Initially I thought this might apply only to the CLI session, but discovered that it also affects the ADMIN GUI session.

Tnx to Mark T for discovering this.
