IPSec VPN 2fa Timeout Settings

Hi All,

Is there a way to enforce a timeout on the 2fa authentication period?

We are required to enforce refreshing of 2fa authentication every 24 hours to maintain certification while working remotely. I have not found a way to set this in our Fortigate 200D. I am fine with setting a timeout on the VPN connection itself, thereby forcing a refresh of 2fa.

Also, I would prefer a session timeout rather than an inactivity timeout, if possible.

 

Thanks!

Tim

The first thing I found in my Internet search was my own post about idle timeout on this forum two years ago.

I don't see other timeout setting in IPsec phase1 config.  Probably auth server side including 2Factor auth doesn't have a mechanism to kill the VPN once it's successfully authorized.

 

If it were SSL VPN, you could set the session timemout to drop the connection as you wanted.
