Why each option
The Refreshable Timeout for Client Authentication is located in the Limit tab of the Client Authentication Action Properties, not in user or gateway objects.
The user object's Authentication screen configures the authentication scheme (e.g., Check Point Password, RADIUS) for a specific user, not session timeout refresh behavior.
The Gateway object's Authentication screen controls gateway-level authentication parameters and does not expose a Refreshable Timeout option specific to Client Authentication rules.
The Refreshable Timeout option is specifically found in the Limit tab within the Client Authentication Action Properties screen of the rule. Enabling it causes the authorized timeout timer to reset each time a new connection from that user is authorized, effectively extending the session as long as the user remains active.
Global Properties Authentication screen defines system-wide default timeout values but does not contain the per-rule Refreshable Timeout toggle available in Client Authentication Action Properties.
