Query about user certificate validity period of FAS


Instructions

The default validity period is one week (seven days), with certificate replacement the first time the user logs on after the halfway point (3.5 days). It is currently hardcoded to 50% of the certificate lifetime.
To extend the validity period, edit the appropriate certificate template in the Windows Certificate Templates MMC snap-in. The extended validity period allows cached certificates to be used for a longer period.
