Floating user - timeout?

Hi

Does anyone know what the timeout is for an RRC 2.0 floating user? I believe that as soon as one person shuts down their instance of RRC, it hands back the consumed floating license, but not sure.

thanks

anthony

Just to make sure folks understand why this is a more significant
question than just adjusting a timeout value:

The price for a floating license is based on the expected number of
users that can use a single license. Decreasing the waiting time
increases the number of users that can share a single license (which I
assume is why you are asking for it), which effectively is requesting a
decrease in the per-user cost of the license.

Cheers,
Geoff

Good afternoon on this subject I would like to ask how we could
minimize the waiting time of two (2) hours, only to come down for a
minutes?

And an explicit log out action will release the floating license immediately. The timeout is for the case a user forgot to log out explicitly.
