Ssh Server Authentication-Timeout - HP A5500 EI Command Reference Manual

Default level
3: Manage level
Parameters
times: Maximum number of authentication attempts, in the range 1 to 5.
Description
Use the ssh server authentication-retries command to set the maximum number of SSH connection
authentication attempts.
Use the undo ssh server authentication-retries command to restore the default.
By default, the maximum number of SSH connection authentication attempts is 3.
This configuration takes effect only for users trying to log in after the configuration.
Authentication will fail if the number of authentication attempts—including both publickey and password
authentication—exceeds that specified in the ssh server authentication-retries command.
If the authentication method of SSH users is password-publickey, the maximum number of SSH
connection authentication attempts must be at least 2. This is because SSH2.0 users must pass both
password and publickey authentication.
