Hello,
I would like to know if the value of the IP-sec PVn timeout, indicates the interval of the last disconnection of the vpn.

    The timeout on VPN's monitor page is that this field displays how many seconds remain in the SA life time, before the Zyxel Device automatically disconnects the IPSec SA. 
    If you have questions of option on device, you can click "?Help" to get description on the GUI.

    The timeout is a normal mechanism in network technology to avoid the zombie(inactive) connections. Also, the network protocols normally also have its own keep alive mechanism to keep the connections up if it's still functioning.
