The default timeout time of a user
interface is 10 minutes.
With the timeout time being 10
minutes, the connection to a user
interface is terminated if no operation
is performed in the user interface
within 10 minutes.
You can use the idle-timeout 0
command to disable the timeout
function.

the user interface is determined by the user privilege level level command.
