Viewing and Changing Global Session Settings
The Global - Sessions subcategory specifies whether the appliance will automatically close an

data sent over a video session to the appliance.
To change global session values:

select a value from the list or enter a value in the range 1-60.
4. In the Keyboard/Mouse encryption level checkboxes, select one or more levels of encryption
