Logging off from CentraSite Business UI
To log off from the CentraSite Business UI, click the Log Out link at the top right hand corner of the screen.
If you do not log off after using CentraSite (that is, if you simply close the browser window without logging out), by default, your session automatically times out after 30 minutes of inactivity. You can set user sessions to automatically time out after a period of inactivity. You can define the length of the period of inactivity that results in an automatic logout.
If configured Single-Sign-On (SSO) authentication, you specify a URL to redirect to when you log off. When you specify a logout URL, and when you click Log Out or your session expires, you are redirected to that page. If you don’t specify a logout URL, you are redirected to the general CentraSite login page.
You can specify any customized page to open when the logout event occurs. This is controlled by the following property statement in the centrasite.xml configuration file:
<SSOLogoffLandingURL>http://www.softwareag.com</SSOLogoffLandingURL>
Note:
Software AG recommends logging off after using the user interface. Logging off ensures that the cookies from your session are cleared from your machine. If you close your browser without logging out, these cookies might not be cleared (depending on which browser you use) and could be reused if you were to log on to CentraSite Business UI before your earlier session's timeout period had elapsed.
