when the number of retries to enter the SSH password exceeds the configured value. Refer to

Configuring the Password Authentication Timeout Time

When the local/remote server receives the user name, the authentication starts; when the user
authentication is completed, the authentication ends. Whether the user is authenticated on the local
server or on a remote server is determined by the related AAA configuration.
If a password authentication is not completed before the authentication timeout expires, the
authentication fails, and the system terminates the connection and makes some logging.
If a password authentication is completed within the authentication timeout time, the user will log into
the switch normally.
