Sessions still open after logout

[kandida]

Hi

We have some policy authenticating users by identity. But when a user logs out his open connections continue to download although he cannot create new connection without re-authenticating. Is it possible to end all user connections when the user lofs out?

thanks

Have you tried changing the auth-timeout-type to hard-timeout under user=>settings.

I know that this will kill all open sessions on a timeout.  It likely could do the same thing on a logout, but would need testing.

I do not know if enabling hard timeouts solves this problem but actually this is not an option for us, we cannot use that option because frequent  disconnecting and re-authentication is very annoying for users.

Is a systematic behavior of fortigate or it is related to my configuration? I could not find anything in configuration documents  about it.
