Hello,

 

Thank you for posting in Q&A forum.

Sorry to hear that you encountered a timeout issue while connecting to Azure virtual machines. This problem may be caused by multiple factors, and we recommend that you try the following solutions:

Firstly, please ensure that your local network connection is functioning properly. Check your network settings to ensure that you can access the Internet and that there are no firewalls or network restrictions that prevent SSH connections.

Check your Azure virtual machine settings to ensure that the SSH service is running and configured correctly. Ensure that your network security group settings allow SSH traffic to pass through.

If you are using an SSH key to connect, please ensure that your private key matches the public key of the Azure virtual machine. Verify if your SSH key settings are correct.

Attempt to check the status and connectivity of virtual machines through Azure portal. You can try restarting the virtual machine or check for any alerts or error messages in the Azure portal.

View the logs and diagnostic information of Azure virtual machines to determine if there are any specific errors or warnings, which may help diagnose the root cause of the problem.

Additionally, please refer to and try the troubleshooting methods provided by Microsoft official, hoping to be helpful to you
