Limit guest's active session life span
Use the glide.guest.active.session.life_span property to control the duration of an active guest's HTTP sessions.
The glide.guest.active.session.life_span system property enforces a maximum lifespan on active guest HTTP sessions, regardless of session inactivity. The configured value is in minutes. A value of 0 disables the lifespan limit entirely, allowing sessions to persist until the inactive timeout fires. Guest users are unauthenticated users who access the instance without logging in.
Set the glide.guest.active.session.life_span system property to 720.

| Functional impact | This configuration enforces max life-span on active guest HTTP sessions irrespective of inactive timeout. The configured value is in minutes. A value of zero disables the lifespan limit entirely. The max life-span should be more than the inactive timeout glide.ui.session_timeout (default 30 minutes). |
