In the details pane, under Settings, click Change global settings.
On the Network Configuration tab, click Advanced Settings.
In Forced Time-out (mins), type the number of minutes users can stay connected.
In Forced Time-out Warning (mins), type the number of minutes before users are warned that the connection is due to be disconnected and then click OK.
