The status bar at the top of the pages shows information for:

The Security sections lets you set a range of:

For these settings, you must use comma-delimited entries, in classless inter-domain routing (CIDR) format.

Auto logout settings

The Auto logout settings section lets you automatically log out inactive users with browser windows or tabs open. When enabled, Vantage logs out users after the specified inactivity period. You can configure:
  • Auto logout enabled: Enable or disable automatic logout for inactive users
  • Auto logout timeout: Set the inactivity period before automatic logout occurs

Admin and root users can disable this behavior by unchecking the Auto logout enabled toggle.

User lockout settings

The User lockout settings section lets you automatically lock user accounts after a period of inactivity. This improves security. When enabled, users who do not log in within the configured period are automatically locked out. You can configure:
  • User lockout enabled: Enable or disable automatic user account lockout for inactivity
  • User lockout timeout: Set the number of days of inactivity before a user account is locked (30, 60, 90, 120, 180, or 360 days)
When this setting is enabled, you can manage individual user lockout behavior from the Users page with these actions:
  • Allow lock after inactivity: Allow the user account to be automatically locked due to inactivity
  • Prevent inactivity lock: Prevent the user account from being automatically locked due to inactivity
  • Unlock user (inactivity): Unlock user accounts that have been locked due to inactivity

When you disable this setting, users retain access to Vantage and these actions are not available.

Remote diagnostics

The Remote diagnostics section lets you enable remote diagnostics for your Vantage instance, which allows Nozomi Networks support to access diagnostic information for troubleshooting purposes.
