Negate result of the test in robotframework

Is there any option to negate a test in robotframework? I have this specific chunk of code:

*** Settings ***
Library    SSHLibrary

*** Variables ***
${HOST}    localhost
${USER}    guest
${PASS}    guest

*** Test Cases ***
Verify default credentials are disabled
    Open Connection    ${HOST}
    Login              ${USER}    ${PASS}

This will PASS if test can connect and login using those credentials, however if it is required to ensure that some credentials are disabled/will not work, test should PASS in case cannot perform the connection.

Is there any way to negate the result of the test in robotframework?

Unless the library you use doesn't have suitable "negative keyword" such as Login Should Fail, which SSHLibrary doesn't have, you need a workaround. The easiest workaround is probably using BuiltIn keyword Run Keyword And Expect Error.
