Time limit for Forticlient Users on IP-sec VPN

[plupien79]

We have a Forticlient EMS and are using IP-Sec VPN with entra SAML to login to the VPN.

I need to have a simple time limit that would disconnect users after 12 hours of being connected (active or not)

How can this be accomplished?

Post Connection script? Automation on Fortigate? Tagging Action in EMS?

can you show the config where you have setup the time limit

[plupien79]

I don't have it configured. But I need to, but there doesn't seem to be any guidance on this.

You can check with below settings:-

config vpn ssl settings

    set auth-timeout 28800

end

This is one way of re auth the user

That looks like the one that I need. I'll test it out now.
