SessionOptions.Timeout set to 120 seconds but connection times out in about 20 seconds

I am using winscp.exe and WinSCPnet.dll 6.3.5.0 and .NET framework 4.6.1.
I set the session option timeout to 120 seconds; however,when calling Session.Open, the session times out after 15–20 seconds. how can I increase the timeout in seconds to the value I've configured?
var sessionOptions = new SessionOptions();
sessionOptions.Protocol = Protocol.Sftp;
sessionOptions.HostName = processArguments.FtpServerName;
sessionOptions.UserName = processArguments.FtpUserName;
sessionOptions.Password = processArguments.FtpPassword;
sessionOptions.Timeout = TimeSpan.FromSeconds(120);
using (Session session = new Session())
{
    session.ExecutablePath = executablePath;
    session.Open(sessionOptions);
}

Re: SessionOptions.Timeout set to 120 seconds but connection times out in about 20 seconds

Generally, a timeout is just a hint to the system. If system decides that it's pointless to wait further, it can give up earlier.

If you want us to check further, please attach a full session log file showing the problem (using the latest version of WinSCP).

To generate the session log file, set Session.SessionLogPath. Submit the log with your post as an attachment. Note that passwords and passphrases not stored in the log. You may want to remove other data you consider sensitive though, such as host names, IP addresses, account names or file names (unless they are relevant to the problem). If you do not want to post the log publicly, you can mark the attachment as private.
