# Session logout

The `PingFederateCancelURL` address in your `<apache_home>/conf/mod_pf.conf` file initiates a user-session logout. This URL specifies a resource that directs the Apache agent to:

1. Initiate a single logout (SLO), if configured

2. Expire the PingFederate session

3. Clean up any resources associated with the session

4. Pass control back to the application so that it can clean up its own session
