Below is a sample config.web file used to configure the session state settings for an ASP.NET application:

configuration>
  <sessionstate
      mode="inproc"
      cookieless="false"
      timeout="20"
      sqlconnectionstring="data source=127.0.0.1;user id=<user id>;password=<password>"
      server="127.0.0.1"
      port="42424"
  />
</configuration>

.

Hope this will give an idea to you.

Well, you have two things here:
1. Detecting session timeout
2. Once it's a session timeout, direct user to login page.

Have a look at these:

Link 2[^]
Link 3[^]
Link 4[^]
