of the following:

Additional HTTP Port HTTP traffic uses port 80, but you can configure an additional CP

authentication server port for HTTP web connection. Enter a port

number between 0-65535 (excluding port 80, 443, and the

configured switch management port). The HTTP port default is 0

which denotes no additional port.

Authentication Timeout To access the network through a portal, the client must first enter

authentication information on an authentication Web page. Enter

the number of seconds to keep the authentication session open

with the client. When the timeout expires, the switch disconnects

any active TCP or SSL connection with the client. The range is 60-

600 seconds. The default is 300 seconds.
