Default level
3: Manage level
Parameters
times: Maximum number of authentication attempts for SSH users, in the range 1 to 5.
Description
Use the ssh server authentication-retries command to set the maximum number of connection
authentication attempts for SSH users.
Use the undo ssh server authentication-retries command to restore the default.
By default, the maximum number of connection authentication attempts for SSH users is 3.
This configuration takes effect only for the users at next login.
Authentication fails 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 server first uses publickey
authentication, and then uses password authentication to authenticate SSH users. The process is
regarded as one authentication attempt.
Related commands: display ssh server.
