Hello,
We have the servers inside our network that the employees can Telnet on. The session never time out.
We have a regional office from where the employees Telnet on the same servers but they have a timeout after 10 minutes idle time.
All the network devices are Cisco. The regional office is connected to headoffice via a VPN connection. The VPN is terminated on my Cisco Firewall.
Would somebody have any idea what the problem can be?
I am wondering if I have to change any configuration on my Cisco routers or switch or even firewall!!! but I do not know what it is!!!
Thanks,
Mehdi

the firewall (assuming ASA) will typically have an idle connection timeout. The default is an hour whereas you are reporting 10 minutes.
timeout conn 1:00:00 half-closed 0:10:00 udp 0:02:00 icmp 0:00:02

Thanks for your help. Thats fixed the issue.
The connection on that server was a half-closed and of course 10 minutes make sense!
I increased it to 1 hour and it worked very good.
