idle_timeout vs idle_timeout_gui

When configuring FortiAnalyzer idle timeouts, there is an option for both "Idle Timeout" and "Idle Timeout (GUI)".

 

Anyone know the difference between these settings?

I'm thinking that "Idle Timeout" might be for SSH sessions.

You are correct. Idle Timeout (GUI) is for HTTP/S interface. Idle Timeout is for SSH interface.

Cheers,
