How can I stay logged in to the Orbi admin webpage longer?

I frequently leave the orbi management gui open on my desktop as I have a new system and am still making tweaks and checking status. However the webpage seems to re-prompt for login about every 5-10 minutes. This is extra annoying since the box is modal and prevents me from getting the password from 1password easily (but thats a digression).

 

So the question is - can I increase this timeout in some way?  I did not see an obvious option in the GUI, perhaps there's something to be done via telnet.

 

with config show, I see some timeout & login related options - but am not sure what they do:

 

root@RBR50:/# config show | grep -i timeout
lbd_OverloadInactTimeout=5
porttrigger_timeout=20
lbd_NormalInactTimeout=5
root@RBR50:/# config show | grep -i login
armor_login_mark=1
http_loginname=admin
thank_login=0
wan_bpa_servicename=login-server
circle_login_mark=0
