The timeout is how long the server will wait (for either a

Extended timeout is an added timeout that is given once
210
after a password has been sent successfully to a client.
211
The timeout is by default longer than the normal timeout,
212
and is used for handling the extra long downtime while a
213
machine is booting up. Time to take into consideration
214
when changing this value is file system checks and quota
215
checks. The default value is 15 minutes.
