    Hi Anzine321,

    Please check the following article

    K03837405: Using the 'Max Sessions Per User' access profile setting and the 'session.logon.last.logonname' session variable

    As per the article, If you set "Max Sessions per User" to 0 in the APM profile, it means there is no limit on the number of concurrent sessions a single user can have. In this configuration:

    • A user can log in from multiple devices or browsers at the same time using the same account.
    • Existing active sessions will NOT be disconnected when a new session is established from another device or browser.
    • There is no restriction or forced logout due to session count for that user.

      Yes, if you set up the VPN resource to give a pool of more than 100 private IP addresses, and your “Max Sessions per User” is set to 0 (which means unlimited), then if you have more than 100 IPs in your pool, a single user could potentially use up a lot (or even all) of those IPs if they open lots of sessions at once. But as you know, if you want to stop a single user from using too many IPs (and thus blocking others), you should set a reasonable value for “Max Sessions per User” in the APM profile.

      Please refer the following article:
