It seems that what you need is to set the "watch-timeout" and not the
"connection-timeout". The former is defined as the "time allowed to reach
established state". So if the user fails to establish the connection after
this timeout, the router send a reset to the server to drop the connection.

So the right command (in my humble opinion) would be:

"ip tcp intercept watch-timeout [seconds]"

It sounds misleading to use the "watch" timeout when in "intercept" mode,
but that's what the documentation says!

Let's hear from experts too ....

Can anyone tell me if using the below command will disconnect the
user/connection or simply cause the router to stop managing (keeping stats
or control of) the user/connection. I want to disconnect the user/connection
after a specific timeout period irregardless of his authentication/TCP
status.

"ip tcp intercept connection-timeout [seconds]"

Below is the Cisco Link, but it is not specific.
