FTP Authorization Failure time limits

Subject: FTP Authorization Failure time limits
Date: 28 Sep 2007 11:14:41 -0000
Hi,
When an FTP authorization fails thrice continuously, an error called 530: User 
not logged in (Your password is being rejected) triggers an alarm in some 
Enterprise SIM solutions. 

Can somebody please explain whether there is a time frame for the illegitimate 
login attempts after which the alarm fires? 
To elaborate the query, how much time space is allotted after every individual 
invalid login attempt for an attacker using Brute force by the FTP server? 

Thanks in advance

Cheers!
