Alert manager enterprise feature

Hi Team, We are using Alert manager enterprise to receive the alert notifications. As we are new to this alert manager enterprise, we would like to understand few features about it. Firstly, we have use cases with threshold criteria.  So, we would like to understand that if we have events which are with inside the threshold limit but not with exact threshold match (i.e) we set an alert to trigger if we encounter 5 failure attempts for any user within 5minutes. But in real time, we noticed that 5 failure attempts for user within 2 minutes, as we set up threshold as 5 minutes, even though we have 5 failure attempts within  2 minutes, will it trigger an alert?
