BFD Events Before Block

I Have APF and BFD Installed but it always seems to show 80 odd events before blocking the IP. Is there a way of setting it to say 10 wrong attempts?

I Tried this, but it hasn't done a thing. below happened after the change.

REQ="/usr/sbin/sshd"
if [ -f "$REQ" ]; then
LP="/var/log/secure"
TLOG_TF="sshd"
TRIG="10"
