Waits for a total of O(timeout) seconds.
Retries the transport connection after a timeout of O(connect_timeout).
Tests the transport connection every O(sleep) seconds.
This module makes use of internal ansible transport (and configuration) and the ping/win_ping module to guarantee correct end-to-end functioning.
This module is also supported for Windows targets.
