Hi,

You have two sessions : your web application session and the SSO session.

As long as your web app session lasts, the CAS client will not redirect the 
user back to the CAS server. When your web session is expired, the CAS 
client send the user back to the CAS server which checks if the SSO session 
is expired. If expired, the login page is displayed for re-authentication. 
If not expired, the user is redirected back to the application with a 
service ticket which is used by CAS client to validate it against the CAS 
server and initialize the security context.

Service tickets (ST) and granting tickets (TGT) are very different.
TGT : cookie, reusable, long lived information = SSO session
ST : parameter in url, used once, 1 TGT for n ST, short lived information = 
access to an application.

Best regards,
Jérôme
