3. Type 1 to select Maximum Number of Sessions to increase the

number of sessions.

The following prompt is displayed:

Enter maximum SSL sessions value -> [1 to 100] 50

Enter a value from 1 to 100. The maximum number of sessions is
used to speed up a connection. By increasing the number of
sessions, you increase HTTPS performance. However, increasing
the number of sessions also increases the memory requirements.
The default is 50.

4. Type 2 to select Session Cache Timeout to increase or decrease the

timer that determines when the session cache times out.

The following prompt is displayed:

Enter Cache timeout value -> [1 to 600] 300

seconds.
