For ESXi 5.x onward, Tech Support Mode is SSH (Remote TSM) and ESXi shell (Local TSM) - VMware Knowledge Base​​. Though it is not mandatory, you can set the ESXi shell timeout value set using the steps mentioned in the blog - https://www.vladan.fr/three-ways-to-enable-esxi-shell-and-timeout/​ (Search for 'ESXi Shell Timeout configuration').
