LDAP Group Configuration: Can I increase the search request time limit higher than default UI timeout of 30 seconds?

[vikas_gopal]

Hi Experts,

I am configuring a dynamic ldap group with splunk .Group employee has more than 50,000 users.
when I am mentioning below advance settings I am getting an error

"Encountered the following error while trying to update: In handler 'LDAP-auth': Invalid timelimit"

Advance settings
Search request size limit :- 1000
Search request time limit:- 45
Network socket timeout:- -1

it is mentioned under request time limit that (The maximum time limit in seconds to wait for LDAP searches to complete. This should be less than the UI timeout of 30s.).Here my question is what if I want to increase this limit as I mention it as 45. Can I change the default UI timeout..?

Strange even after seen my question by different experts by 36 times no one has provided any advice or solution ,but I cracked it my own .I hope it may help someone. I can increase the limit as follows

1) Authentication.conf
network_timeout = 1200 (previously it was 25 sec.)
sizelimit =15000 (previously it was 1000)
timelimit = 1200 (previously it was 20 sec.)

2) web.conf
# default timeout, in seconds, when communicating with splunkd
splunkdConnectionTimeout = 1201 (previously it was 30 sec.)
