| TrueNAS terminates inactive sessions when the it reaches the specified timeout limit. If a new session is initiated within a five-minute period, TrueNAS logs the user in as the previously login session. If the log in occurs outside the five-minute period TrueNAS initiates a new websocket session. This activity shows in the audit logs for sessions. | |||

"audit logs for sessions" are we saying sessions in general? or a specific number of sessions?

It appears to be talking about sessions where the user logs out, or are logged out by the session time, where they turn around and log back into the system as the same user. If it is within this 5 minute period, the system re-establishes the same session. If outside of the period, it starts a brand new websocket session. Tricky to say such that it makes sense. What do you think???
