"What would be useful would be a notification/warning that a session is due to timeout after exceeding the default connection limit."
"In order to have to bypass the login using the website, a good feature for Perimeter 81 to have is a login instance in the Perimeter 81 application. I'm using a Mac and we don't have that functionality."
