Admin users renew the session every time the main screen refreshes
in the Web Configurator. Access users can renew the session by
clicking the Renew button on their screen. If you allow access users
to renew time automatically (see Section 35.4 on page 591), the users
can select this check box on their screen as well. In this case, the
session is automatically renewed before the lease time expires.
