# Avoiding Overcharges for Sessions That Time Out

When an idle timeout terminates a session, you can set up the SAE to reduce the session time reported in the accounting stop message by the idle time. This way the session time is accurately reported to avoid overcharges for the session.

Use the following configuration statement to configure the length of time that a subscriber profile remains in the SAE’s in-memory cache:

`

shared sae configuration idle-timeout {
  adjust-session-time;
}

`

To adjust the session time:

1. From configuration mode, access the SAE idle timeout configuration statement.
   `
   user@host# edit shared sae configuration idle-timeout
   `
2. Enable when an idle timeout terminates a session, the session time reported in the accounting stop message is reduced by the idle time.
   `
   [edit shared sae configuration idle-timeout]
   user@host# set adjust-session-time
   `
3. (Optional) Verify your configuration.

       [edit shared sae configuration idle-timeout]
       user@host# show
       adjust-session-time;
