I have installed a pritunl server on an ec2 machine on AWS, but I dont see the option to set the “User Session Timeout” in the server configuration?

why? that options shows only if I have the enterprise subscription? since currently I only have the free pritunl version

That option requires an enterprise subscription.

Good day. We’d like to use session timeout but we dont want to use other enterprise features. Is setting session timeout available in premium license? Thanks

It isn’t in premium either, it’s only in the enterprise subscription.
