Log Off

When you are finished using the portal, you should log off in order to close your portal session. Logging off is important for the following reasons:
  • If you are no longer using the portal but haven't logged off, your portal session continues to use system resources until the session expires. When you log off, these resources become available for other applications to use. Your portal session continues until the session expires even if you close the browser window without logging off the portal.
  • If you go to another URL without logging off, your portal logon could remain in effect. This means that until your portal session times out, you can bring up your personal portal again without re-entering your user name and password.
Follow these steps to log off:
  1. Click Log Off in the banner.
  2. You can now close the browser window.
