> Today, the NetScaler Resource forces a idle timeout of 100,000 seconds (~1 day and 4 hours) during login. The request is to remove forcing the timeout to a specific value.
> Also, future versions of NetScaler is planning to have a cap of 1 day for this setting.
> It is best to leave it to the system default which is 30 mins. This should be enough, anyway there are threads for monitoring of member status, and statistics collections  that keeps the session alive and it is unlikely to gather idle time.
> The NetScaler resource already handles timeout expiry using retries so there should not be any see side effects by leaving the idle time out to be the default value 30 mins..
