Research direction
Start with the New-SSHSession command shown in the report and reproduce the timeout against AIX 7.1 using the stated PowerShell module version. Compare the connection details with the working PuTTY setup and identify the relevant connection-handling entry point. Done means establishing the SSH session successfully or documenting the missing compatibility details needed for a targeted fix.
