The default TCP idle timeout is 300 secs, you can set that to whatever you want it to be. You can also use an iRule with 

IP::stats age
to send a TCP reset after a period of time. But then the client will just re-send the same HTTP request on a new TCP session. HTTP doesn't have a timeout per se - it is a request/response model so the timeout is on the client. Timeouts are often set on cookies or login sessions, is that what you mean? I think you need to go back and work out in more detail what exactly it is that you want.
