Solution 1:[1]
gcloud has no global and gcloud compute ssh no specific timeout settings.
gcloud compute ssh (and scp) are wrappers around the host's ssh and scp commands.
Configuration options for ssh are summarized in ssh_config man page e.g. -o ConnectTimeout=....
You can set this using gcloud's (!) --ssh-flag flag e.g.
gcloud compute ssh ... --ssh-flag="-o ConnectTimeout=5"
