# timeout

Hot Reloadable

authTimeoutOption embeds noopOption, so this key alone does not trigger re-authorization; the new value sits in Options and is read when each connection is accepted. There is nothing to re-apply to an already-authenticated connection.

Maximum number of seconds to wait for a client to authenticate.
