Session Idle Timeouts

During an impersonated session, an impersonator's original session can possibly idle out. This depends on the idle timeout value for the realm in which the impersonator originally authenticated. If the impersonator impersonates a user for a longer period than their original idle timeout, the impersonation session ends with the impersonator's original session. To avoid this situation, increase the session idle timeout for realms in which impersonators commonly authenticate.
