HTTPS Timeout based on total time

Is it possible to timeout a HTTPs session based on total time regardless if that session is active? I have a customer that wants to terminate all HTTPS sessions after 10 minutes regardless of activity level. Can this be done within an iRule or profile? Thanks

    Hi Gregg,

     

    In version 10.1 F5 introduced tables. Specifically to track sessions and age them out whether they are idle or they have a specific lifetime. You can find references and codeshare examples in the following path

    just wondering if we can use "after" command to close connection, e.g. TCP::close, after 10 minutes.
